INGREDIENTS – TACO “MEAT”

  • 1 cup walnuts

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Recipe Directions

  1. If you are using dry sun-dried tomatoes, soak your sun-dried tomatoes in oil for at least one hour. Drain and pat dry before using. (If your sun-dried tomatoes are packed in oil you don’t need to do this.)
  2. Simply add all taco “meat” ingredients to the food processor and blend until it become the consistency of the photo above. Go slow! It will happen quickly, perhaps a few pulses.
  3. Place your taco “meat” on a plate and top with sliced romaine lettuce, sliced tomato and sliced avocado. Eat immediately.

The Rawtarian’s Thoughts

This walnut-based raw taco filling is an excellent, hearty topping for a raw taco salad.

This recipe is for three large meal-sized servings. Feel free to double the taco meat recipe if you prefer.

The taco filling keeps VERY well in the fridge for around 4 days! Seriously, the “taco meat” keeps superbly so it’s a perfect recipe to keep in the fridge for quick meals.

I love this stuff!
