Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups raw walnuts
  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder optional but I like more flavor!
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • tortillas
  • whatever toppings you like!

Method
 

  1. In a food processor, pulse the walnuts into large pieces, slightly larger than what taco meat would look like. Add the black beans and give it a couple more pulses. You do not what it pured. It should look taco meat at this point.
  2. In a large pan, saute the onion for a few minutes until soft. Add the taco seasoning and cook for 30 seconds. Add the walnut mixture. Cook for about 10 minutes. You will need to break down the mixture to keep it crumbly. You can heat the tortillas while this is cooking
  3. Add the tomato sauce, stir in, cook for a couple minutes and thats it!
