Fruit as a replacement for taco meat … ummm.., what kind of craziness is this? I know it sounds completely crazy, but it's so delicious and the texture is nice! You've got to trust me and give it a try. I topped these nachos with some delicous toppings and the cheese and sour cream is vegan as well. The details are listed on my blog .

First, I want to say, even though Jack Fruit looks like shredded chicken, it does not take the place of "chicken", but it is still very good. Jackfruit is a tropical fruit from Southeast Asia and it looks like a big prickly, greenish-yellow fruit you may have come across in the grocery store. Now, to make this recipe, you would not use the ripe jack fruit you see in the store. This jack fruit I am using comes in a can, and is referred to as ‘young green jackfruit in brine’. I order it from Amazon as I am unable to locate it in my local stores. The vegan cheese and sour cream can be found at Whole Foods. I always keep some cans of jack fruit on hand for simple vegan meals like this.
