Balsamic mushroom taco

I cooked dinner for my partner Bradley on the weekend which is always a little difficult because he’s very picky and loves plain meaty food however my palette is the opposite, I could graze on veges all day everyday. So for the entree I combined the meatiness of the mushroom in a balsamic reduction with the hard crunchy texture of a herb taco, it was a big hit!
