Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and turn the heat up to medium-high. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms soften and begin to sweat. Turn the heat back to medium and add 1/2 teaspoon salt, the garlic and the chipotle. Continue to cook until the mushroom liquid has evaporated from the pan, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the cilantro or parsley, taste and adjust seasonings.
- Heat the tortillas, 2 or 3 at a time, in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, or in a microwave. Top each one with a spoonful of mushrooms, and a sprinkling of cheese. Fold the filled tortillas in half, and serve, passing the salsa separately in a bowl.

SOFT TACOS WITH MUSHROOMS AND CABBAGE
Two nutrient-dense vegetables combine forces in this delicious filling. Mushrooms are an excellent source of vitamins and many minerals, particularly selenium, copper, potassium, phosphorous, zinc, and manganese - and they contain a powerful antioxidant called L-ergothioneine. They're used medicinally throughout Asia for their immunity-boosting properties. They also contain more protein than most other vegetables, and their meaty texture makes them a perfect choice for vegetarians. Cabbage possesses phytochemicals like sulforaphane, which protects the body against cancer-causing free radicals, and indoles, which help metabolize estrogens. It's also an excellent source of vitamins K and C, and a very good source of dietary fiber, vitamin B6, folate, manganese and omega-3 fatty acids.

Steps:
- Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and sear, stirring often or tossing in the pan, until they are lightly colored and beginning to sweat, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute, until tender. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute.
- Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper and stir in the cabbage. Cook, stirring often, until the cabbage is tender, about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and stir in the cilantro and .25 to .5 cup of the salsa (to taste).
- Heat the tortillas. Top with the mushroom/cabbage mixture, sprinkle with cheese if desired, and serve.
