  • Soak the soy curls in water for 10 minutes, drain and set aside

  • Then, add the chipotle chili and adobo sauce and the peaches and stir for a few minutes. Finally, add the tomato sauce and simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
  • Transfer the sauce to a blender and puree on high until smooth. Set aside.

  • Next, add the peach chipotle sauce back to the skillet and turn the heat to low. Simmer the soy curls and sauce for 20 minutes. Add salt to taste once finished.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the sunflower sour cream by combining all ingredients into a high-speed blender and blending until creamy, slowly adding more water if needed.
  • Prepare the tacos by warming up the tortillas and adding red cabbage and slices of peaches. Top with the Peach Chipotle “Chicken,” green onions, and the sunflower sour cream.
