These tacos have some of the seasonings used in a typical California fish taco-although I must admit I have ever had a real fish taco, only the vegan versions. This recipes uses a hint of lime with cabbage and, of course, chickpeas.

✏️ Tips & Hints

  • I use nonstick metal bowls to shape my tacos. I put the tortillas in the bowl and bake for 5-10 minutes. These are perfect for taco salads as well.
