Here’s a perfect protein punch to keep you amped all throughout the game. 💪 Melt some vegan cheese on your patties and add lettuce, tomato, or any other vegan toppings.

We have a few delish Latin dishes on this list, like chilaquiles, a beautiful blend of tofu, salsa, tortilla chips, and garnishes. 😋

Al Pastor Tacos
