Taco “Meat”

Ingredients

  • 1 c walnuts
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (about half a lemon)
  • 1 tsp Braggs aminos
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. The walnuts will can be soaked for 4-8 hours to soften. This also helps break down the acids making the nuts easier to digest and absorb the minerals. Just water high enough to cover the walnuts and a pinch or 2 of sea salt. (I preferred not soaking, walnuts are a soft nut as is.)
  2. After the walnuts have soaked 4 or so hours, drain and rinse. Grab your supplies: Braggs aminos, Cumin, lemon, and chili powder.
  3. Simply pulsed them in the food processor with a half lemon and 2 squirts of Braggs, and the seasonings, to taste if needed. You can do a taco seasoning packet if you’d like. Option: Add red pepper flakes
