After doing a poll on Instagram asking which recipe you guys wanted to see next, my Potato Tacos came in first place by a landslide! I am happy to present to you my vegan potato tacos with homemade pico de gallo, these tacos are a fun and yummy twist on regular tacos. Something to note is that the Red Cayenne Pepper and the Smoked Paprika mainly contribute to the spice in the potatoes, the more you add of those the spicier they get. This is why I only add a small amount of regular pepper because they are already loaded with spice prior, plus I have a low tolerance for spice. I hope you enjoy these mildly spicy, tasty and delectable tacos!
