🥑 What’s the plan?
We’ll all be trying out their 2025 Twin Cities Vegan Chef Challenge dish, Masala Fire Tacos with Cool Watermelon Salad. It’s made with masala-spiced tofu served on corn tortillas and topped with crunchy cabbage, pickled onions, avocado, cashew mayo, cilantro sauce and green chilies and a side of refreshing watermelon cucumber mint salad.
We’ll also all have the opportunity to take the Veg Pledge to move more towards a plant-based diet (and receive a recipe guide to help), or to refer friends! After we dine, everyone gets to rate the dish at caa.mn/tcvcc.
👨🏾🍳 What is the Twin Cities Vegan Chef Challenge?
Each August, restaurants around the Twin Cities add a new vegan dish to the menu. Diners visit restaurants and rate each dish they try.
We’ll crown the winning chef at a ceremony at 3:30pm on September 21, 2025, at Twin Cities Veg Fest in St. Paul’s Harriet Island Park.
