After I made the Cajun Chickpea Cakes, I wondered why I didn't make bean cakes more often. Afterall, they're so quick and easy!

LA: Hugo's Tacos Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel READ MORE »
Taco huts are a perminent fixture in the Southern California landscape and Hugo's Tacos is one of the more famous huts.

We served them with tubs of vegan chocolate and vanilla icing.

I omitted the oil called for in the recipe and baked my beanballs on a cookie sheet instead of frying them in oil. I also omitted the soy sauce and used a mock beef boullion cube instead for the "beefy" flavoring. The beanballs were good (especially once swimming in tomato-basil marinara) but …
