    I feel like this kind of thing is the result of not having much of a background in cooking for yourself in general. Fortunately, there are tons of videos and online resources to get better at cooking. Don’t just limit yourself to just vegan guides. Look at other cooking materials and then learn effective substitutes from vegan sources.

      Or… turn it into a specialty dish like “French Tacos”…

      “A frat house of ingredients — a typical version includes shawarma, chicken fingers, bacon, French fries, Emmental cheese and barbecue sauce — gets placed inside a flour tortilla that’s folded up and smushed on a panini press. The final product is as squat and dense as a throw pillow and looks like a marriage between a Chipotle burrito and a Panera Bread sandwich. You’re then supposed to dunk it in a galaxy of sauces from ketchup to mustard to Buffalo, ranch and garlic — and, sometimes, all of them mixed together.”

      Mexican and French traditionalists consider the French taco an abomination. But it’s so L.A. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-09-29/french-tacos-the-french-way-westwood-frenchfolds

        this sounds particularly unpalatable but theres a chinese mexican fusion place here. you can have tacos or burritos with all sorts of different stuff. leftover chinese food gets rolled into a tortilla now but its not to the extremes of whatever that is
