- Salsa – Any variety will do
- Vegan Sour Cream – We have a delicious, creamy, Easy Vegan Sour Cream recipe here.
- Guacamole – Store-bought is fine, or try this Easy 4 Ingredient Guacamole for a fresh version.
- Hard taco shells – Soft will work too. But aren’t hard taco shells just the best?
- Spices & Seasonings – To take the Veggie Ground Meat to the next level.
- Garnishes – Lettuce, tomatoes, and cilantro (if you’re a fan).
