Walnut Meat Tacos Recipe with Lime Cashew Cream

Does the Walnut filling really taste good?

Short answer – yes! I have made these countless times and every time I get so many compliments. My omnivore cousin really loves these and now makes them for herself.

I think the trick to making the walnut meat extra delicious is the seasoning. The cumin, chili powder, and tamari give the walnut filling a sort of meaty flavor (without any meat).

Walnut meat can be used in these tacos but I’ve also used them in my Walnut Meat Vegan Taco Wraps .
