Vegan Chiles en Nogada
This Vegan Chiles en Nogada offers a plant-based twist on a festive Mexican dish traditionally served in celebration of Mexican Independence Day. Organic poblano peppers are filled with a flavorful blend of tempeh, onions, garlic, and fruits like pineapple, apples, pears, and plantains, and seasoned with spices such as cinnamon and cloves. The peppers are topped with a creamy walnut sauce and garnished with pomegranate seeds and parsley, mirroring the Mexican flag’s colors, making this dish a wonderful way to pay homage to a beloved culinary tradition.
