- Once the mushrooms are cooked, add in the chopped herbs and allow those to sauté and cook. Add in the rest of the dry seasoning as well.
- While the curry mushrooms are cooking, chop up your onion, tomato, and parsley required for the pico salsa topping. Mix in the lemon juice and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Once your curry mushroom has cooked fully, go ahead and toast your tortillas according to package instructions. Top with the mushroom mixture and pico and enjoy!
