  3. Sprinkle taco seasoning over caramelized jackfruit, drizzle extra olive oil, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine diced apple, cucumber, jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, and sea salt for the green apple salsa.
  5. Whisk together sour cream and a splash of milk until smooth for drizzling.
  6. Warm tortillas and fill with seasoned jackfruit, top with green apple salsa, and drizzle with sauce.
