We live in Texas and we love tacos. We like them with lots of cheese and Frank's hot sauce. But we don't like to eat meat much anymore. Dan still eats buffalo meat now and then, but having a raw alternative is nice for both of us and our bodies ... it's so much easier to digest!
So, here's the raw recipe for taco "meat" that Yemiah cutely calls "taco-eat". For a really raw taco, just put some of the taco-eat in a romaine lettuce leaf, add home-made raw salsa, some Yemiah's Raw Sour Cream, and you're ready to go. Or do a transitional meal like we still do now and then, where we just substitute the taco-eat (at room temperature - not heated) with the regular tortillas, cheese, Frank's hot sauce, etc. Either way, you're gonna feel taco satisfied!
| Grind the following ingredients in your food processor or blender. Pulse the grinding so that the mixture stays chunky rather than turning into a fine powder. | |||||||||||
| 1 Cup | Almonds (soaked for 8 hours, rinsed and drained) | ||||||||||
| 3 Cups | Walnuts (soaked for 4 hours, rinsed and drained) | ||||||||||
| 3-4 tsp | Sun Fire Salt (add salt to your desired taste) | ||||||||||

Empty the blended mixture into a large bowl and add the following ingredients: | |||||||||||
| 1/2 | Sweet Onion (chopped) | ||||||||||

| 1 | Habanero Chili (chopped) - Optional | ||||||||||
| 1 Cup | Pine Nuts (not soaked) | ||||||||||
| 1/2 Cup | Hemp Seeds | ||||||||||
| 1-2 Tbsp | Vitamineral Green (you won't even taste the added greens and they're super good for you!) | | |||||||||
Mix all ingredients well per the above instructions. Fill up a romaine lettuce leaf with the mixture, roll up and enjoy like a taco. You can also top your taco with home-made salsa for added kick! Many thanks to Yemiah's Raw Food Delights DVD Set for this recipe, with our addition of some superfood greens. You don't even notice they're there except that you feel so good. Enjoy!
