Notes

Grilling

Grilling the mushrooms enhances their flavor and gives them a wonderful char. Use a grill pan or an outdoor grill for the best results.

Marinating

Marinating the mushrooms in a chipotle BBQ sauce prior to cooking allows them to absorb the flavors deeply, making every bite delicious.

Shredding

Shred the cooked mushrooms to create a texture similar to pulled meat, which helps in building a satisfying taco filling.
