For the filling
1 20-oz. can jackfruit
1 Tbsp. coconut oil
½ cup onion
1 tsp. garlic
1 tsp. cumin
½ tsp. oregano
½ tsp. paprika
¼ tsp. chili powder, or to taste
½ tsp. Himalayan pink salt
2 Tbsp. almond butter
½ cup chopped tomato
1 Tbsp. maple syrup
½ Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. vinegar
8 corn tortillas
Guacamole
Salsa
Shredded lettuce
Fresh lime wedges
1 Open the jackfruit can and drain the water out, then pour the fruit into a bowl and break up with your hands — it should pull apart easily. Set it aside.
2 Heat the coconut oil in a skillet and toss in the onions, garlic, cumin, oregano, paprika, and chili powder. Sauté for 2–3 minutes, or until the onions are tender.
3 Add the jackfruit and salt and cook, stirring, for 5–8 minutes, or until mixture is tender and well combined.
4 Stir in the almond butter, chopped tomato, maple syrup, soy sauce, and vinegar and cook for another 1–2 minutes.
5 Turn off the heat. To serve, spoon a little filling into a corn tortilla with guacamole, salsa, shredded lettuce, and Cashew Cream Everything Sauce and squeeze fresh lime juice over everything.
