A Dinner-Time Favorite with Serious Flavor

These Wild Mushroom & Corn Tacos are the ultimate way to enjoy summer’s freshest ingredients. Savory wild mushrooms, sweet corn, and zesty lime crema come together in a vibrant, veggie-forward taco perfect for weeknight dinners, backyard gatherings, or your next farmers market haul.

Step 1

Prep the crema: In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream (or yogurt), lime juice, zest, and salt. Chill in the fridge while preparing the rest.

Step 2

Sauté the veggies: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add red onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and mushrooms. Cook for 5–7 minutes until mushrooms are golden and tender.

Step 3

Add corn & season: Add fresh corn kernels and sauté for 2–3 more minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and optional chili flakes or jalapeño for a little heat.

Step 4

Warm the tortillas: Toast tortillas in a dry skillet or over an open flame for 10–15 seconds per side until pliable.

Step 5

Assemble the tacos: Spoon the mushroom and corn mixture into each tortilla. Drizzle with lime crema and garnish with fresh cilantro and optional toppings like avocado, cotija cheese, or pickled onions.

🧠 Why This Recipe Works

  • Wild Mushrooms: Bring deep umami flavor, meatiness, and nutrient density to every bite.
  • Fresh Corn: Adds sweetness and texture that balance the savory mushrooms.
  • Lime Crema: Bright and tangy—it ties everything together with richness and zest.

🍳 Serving Tips

  • Make it a taco bar: Let guests assemble their own with toppings of choice.
  • Want it vegan? Use a plant-based yogurt for the crema and skip the cheese.
  • Great for potlucks or to highlight your farmers market mushrooms.
