Mushroom & Nut “Meat” Recipe

This recipe is a staple for my weekly prep because it’s simple - can be used in tacos, salads, dips, pasta! Pretty much anything that you’d use ground beef or turkey for.

Unless I’m making my mushroom and nut meat for a specific dish, I only season with salt and pepper. That way, I can pair the meat with different recipes and season according to the dish.

Throughout the week I made tacos with most of the meat. Below, you’ll also see some cauliflower steaks topped off with the “meat'“ and aromatics.
