This was a fun recipe to make vegan, especially since my wife has been looking for new plant based recipes. My favorite aspect of this dish was definitely the avocado and the crispy wonton chips.

Laura Griffin says:

I love playing around with vegan dishes. This beet and avocado tartare was really delicious, but I especially loved the wonton wrapper chips. So good!
