Glad you liked it, Dawna! I was just just telling a friend of mine about it last night — he was lookign for some easy, “meaty” raw vegan dishes and I gave this recipe to him to try. Even after all this time, it’s still one of the best. My sons love it, my guests love it, and you’re right… the mushroom/walnut “meat” layer tastes very authentic. I’ve put the ingredients on my shopping list for this weekend…thanks for the reminder.

Hi Sabrina — thanks for the tip on the macros. Yes, this was one of the first recipes I posted on the site, before I employed decent photography. I used a macro lens on a DSLR for most of my photos, eventually, and have been planning on re-shooting this recipe, because it is smashing an done of my family’s faves!

Please see my comment above. It shows a 2 star, but it’s suppose to be a 5 star rating.

I loved this recipe! It was both filling and delicious and easy too! I tried it wrapped in lettuce leaves. I think that I want to try cabbage leaves or also raw dehydrated corn tortillas next time. This recipe is very garlicy. It’s amazing how the “meat” tasted so much like the standard american diet tacos. Thanks for a great recipe!

looks delicious! i’m going to make it tonight! if i can make a suggestion, you might have a button on your camera that will allow you to take macro photos… it should look like a flower. if you set it to the flower setting, your closeups will come out brilliantly and we can see better what you made! good luck and thanks for the amazing recipe, im so excited

Rachelle, I’m *so* glad to hear you enjoyed this! I know exactly how you feel… it’s just so incredibly meaty. I crave that, especially the higher raw I am. I really do need rich, savory meaty dishes.

You might also like these — these are just *excellent* for satisfying that sort of hankering.
