Here's a tasty way to have tacos without the meat. I actually found a few recipes that I liked and I combined them to create this recipe. This is a great source of omega-3 fatty acids which great for heart health.
The "meat" in this taco is actually ground walnuts. I promise it is tasty. I like using romaine lettuce leaves instead of a tortilla, but if you want gluten free use corn tortilla or any other large leafy green. I have avocado, fresh tomatoes and cilantro as a topping but use any of your favorite toppings like fresh salsa, onions, peppers, carrots, etc.
