Many taco recipes use walnuts for the "meat" taste. I decided to make a low fat version using small amount of walnuts, portabello mushrooms, garlic, pinch of cumin and splash of tamari.



  I always try to make my recipes tasty not only for vegans, raw vegans or vegetarians but also for those eat eat dairy and meat. That's my biggest goal with my recipes. Making food that is healthy, nutritious and so delicious, that you forget about junk food for ever. Who needs unhealthy food when there are easy ways to prepare nutritious, colorful and fresh food every day.



Sometimes, it takes me only couple of minutes to prepare my food. I heard people saying that raw food diet requires a lot of time. Really? I can make a raw vegan cheesecake in half an hour. That you need to dehydrate food for hours? How many times did I upload recipe  that required dehydrator? Maybe once. You don't need any dehydrator to eat raw and dehydrating doesn't actually take your time. You can turn on your dehydrator before going to sleep and on the next morning you get fresh made granola or dehydrated fruits for breakfast. Eating healthy is easier then you think!
