@duckweed @vegan https://dorastable.com/ has a lot of vegan Mexican dishes. All the ones I've made have been good and "authentic". I make the walnut "meat" from her sopes recipe frequently and use it in it dishes.

Welcome
Welcome to c/vegan@lemmy.world. Broadly, this community is a place to discuss veganism. Discussion on intersectional topics related to the animal rights movement are also encouraged.
What is Veganism?
'Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals ...'
— abridged definition from The Vegan Society

- pictures of text require alt-text;
- paywalled articles must have an accessible non-paywalled link;
- use the original source whenever possible for a news article.
- Content warnings are required for triggering content.
- Bad-faith carnist rhetoric & anti-veganism are not allowed, as this is not a space to debate the merits of veganism. Anyone is welcome here, however, and so good-faith efforts to ask questions about veganism may be given their own weekly stickied post in the future.

i see other people recommending recipes with imitation meat, as an alternative i usually use tvp and season accordingly. definitely not as good in a lot of cases, but it is WAY cheaper and achieves a similar effect if seasoned well.
i don't make a lot of mexican dishes, but beans and rice is a classic! i like this recipe, but obviously you could make rice and beans any number of ways.
another one is breakfast burritos, if you can consider that mexican, with tofu scramble and all the other stuff you usually enjoy in burritos.
@duckweed @vegan what we do roughly once a week:
-1lb ground impossible beef with lots of taco seasoning blended in.
-Rosarita vegetarian refried beans (they are vegan)
-yellow onions, cilantro, green and red bell pepper, lettuce, black olive, tomato
-medium or large size fresh tortillas, grilled
-herdez chipotle salsa crema sauce or guacamole sauce
Sauté some chopped onions on the bottom of your empty refried beans pot with a little powdered garlic, then put the beans on top of all that once they are cooked.
Fry up the impossible meat, season the hell out of it with taco seasoning.
When the meat is done, grill/sauté onions, peppers in the skillet you cooked the meat in, getting the impossible meat flavor on them + maybe some more taco seasoning.
EDIT: medium to medium-hi heat for the veggies. Medium-lo temp for the impossible meat. You can medium/hi the impossible, but you may get rapid browning or burning.
Basic vegetable oil for cooking veggies. Just 1 or 1.5 tablespoons. (or however you like your veggies)
You can just throw fresh tomato chunks and lettuce on the food, or you can finely cop the tomatoes and some onions and some cilantro, mix it together, put a tablespoon or so of lime juice in it, a pinch of salt, and mix the hell out of it. Pico de gallo! I use TONS of cilantro in mine.
Just make burritos or soft tacos out of this! Use a LOT of herdez sauce and pico because it is AMAZZZZZZING when it blends with impossible meat!! Make sure to take a bite with ALL those thing together!!
We LOVE this^^^ Im thawing some impossible meat right now.
