Mushroom, Corn and Poblano Tacos

Tacos are one of my favorite things to make. They're just so easy and basically a comfort food. Since I started cooking, my favorite thing about tacos is that they are so diverse. You can make chicken tacos, and chinese tacos, and tacos in a casserole. Whatever sounds good, just throw it in a tortilla!

These tacos, even though they have no meat, were so delicious and filling. There was a lot of flavor to the tacos themselves. These tacos were probably my most 'out-there' taco I've tried to date. I love mushrooms and I would make these again and again.
