We can’t wait to taco-bout how delicious this faux meat is! Made from walnuts and mushrooms (though you can use almost any nut or seed if you’re not a walnut fan), it has the texture and savory characteristics of ground beef. Next Tuesday, make a taco bar with hard and soft corn tortillas, avocado, cilantro, salsa, and fresh red cabbage slaw. Let the Taco Tuesday tradition begin!
