Vegan Walnut     Taco Meat

Yield

8 servings

Time

30 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 cup raw walnuts – 3 tbsp. olive oil – 1 medium onion, diced – 3 garlic cloves, minced – 1 tbsp. chipotles in Adobo sauce, pureed – ½ tsp. paprika – ½ tsp. cumin – ¾ tsp. sea salt – ¼ tsp. pepper – 2 tbsp. soy sauce – 1 can (15 oz.) cooked black beans

1. Place the walnuts into a bowl and pour boiling water on top. Cover with a lid and steep for 10 minutes. (While the walnuts are steeping, it's a great time to prep the rest of the ingredients).

2. Drain the walnuts and add them to a food processor or a chopper. Add 2 tablespoons of water and pulse until you have meat like crumbles.

3. To a large non-stick skillet, add the oil and onions. Cook over medium heat until the onions soften and start to turn golden.

4. Add the garlic and chipotles in adobo to the onions and cook for 1 minute

5. Now add the walnut crumbles, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, and soy sauce. Cook for about 3-4 minutes.

6. Finally, add the black beans. As you cook them, press them with a spoon (you'll want to smash about half of the beans). Turn off the heat and assemble your tacos.
