Ingredients
2 cups walnuts
2 tsp canola oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 red onion, peeled and diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 cup chopped bell pepper, seeded, cored and diced
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin, ground
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
2 tsp soy sauce
juice of 1 lime
8 corn tortillas
4 radishes, sliced thin
2 avocados, peeled, pitted, and sliced
2 sprigs parsley
Instructions
Grind the walnuts in a food processor, then soak them in warm water for 30 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients—strain them into a sieve.
When all ingredients are ready, heat the oil in the pan. Saute the veggies and add the spices. When the veggies are translucent, after about 3-4 minutes, add the walnut filling.
Stir and add the soy sauce and lime juice.
Cook until the walnuts are a golden color.
Spoon the taco filling on top of small tortillas. Top with radishes, avocado, and parsley. Top with more chopped jalapeno if you desire.
Serve with lime wedges.
