Veggie Taco “Meat”

Veggie Taco Meat presented in a white dish
Yields4 ServingsPrep Time15 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time30 mins

Ingredients

 2 cups mushrooms (cremini or white button)
 1 tbsp organic tamari (reduced-sodium, or coconut aminos)
 1 tbsp sherry vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
 1 cup raw walnuts
 2 tsp ground coriander
 1 tsp ground cumin
 1 tsp onion granules
 ½ tsp chili powder
 ¼ tsp smoked paprika
 ¼ tsp salt (optional)

Directions

1

Heat a medium stovetop pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until they start to release their moisture, about 3–5 minutes, stirring often.

2

Once they start to release their moisture, continue cooking for another 5 minutes.

3

Add the tamari and sherry vinegar, cooking until fragrant, about one minute.

4

Drain any excess liquid (you may not have any) from the pan and add the mushrooms to a food processor.

5

Using a small stovetop pan, heat the walnuts on medium heat until fragrant, about 2–3 minutes, tossing occasionally to prevent burning. Transfer the walnuts to the food processor.

6

Add the remaining ingredients (spices and optional salt) to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely chopped.

7

Once cool, transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for 5–7 days. Use in your plant-based dishes throughout the week (see Chef’s Notes for ideas!).
