Prep Time:10 minutes Total Time: 10 minutes Servings: 6

Instructions

Notes

•Walnut meat will last in the fridge for about a week, or in the freezer for about a month. If you want to make another variation, feel free to swap in other herbs and spices. Be sure to keep the tamari in the equation no matter which variation you prefer. •Make your taco meat spicy by adding in more chili powder or swapping it out for a more intense ground pepper like cayenne or ghost pepper. •Give it Italian sausage vibes with some Italian seasoning and fennel seed. You can even add in some sun-dried tomatoes in place of the tamari/soy sauce. •Get your curry on with garam masala, turmeric, and ginger. •Go Mediterranean with some oregano and cinnamon. And then maybe load it into pita shells with some vegan feta, sliced cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and vegan yogurt. NOM. •Or go for a simple vegan hamburger helper flavor using just garlic and onion powder. This can then be turned into vegan sloppy joe's or a tasty vegan bolognese.
