“Ground Meat” – Savory, Grounding, Warming, Versatile… and Raw Vegan

The mushroom recipe trend continues, as we’re in a cold snap here in the Northeast and mushrooms seem to hold a number of keys to enjoying savory, earthy, grounding, warming cold-weather foods.
This one is extremely versatile — I leave it to you to discover how many ways you can use it. But do make it and see what tasty benefits and comforts it brings you. And this recipe requires no dehydration — you can make it in just a couple minutes, which certainly jacks up its usability factor!
You can season this recipe with cacao powder, cumin, a splash of organic raw apple cider vinegar and a bit of raw cane sugar to create a delicious raw vegan taco meat.
Or you could use it instead of walnuts and mushrooms in my Greek Spaghetti or Creamy Bolognese sauces…
You can season it with thyme and add a few chopped apples to go in the direction of a holiday stuffing flavor. You can add it to sandwiches, sprinkle it over soups and salads, enjoy it on its own as a kind of “dry chutney”, as is not uncommon in Indian cuisine.
But if you endeavor to “stay raw” during the winter months, I suspect this basic recipe may serve you very well toward that end. You can even warm it gently in the oven, adding to the comforting appeal. Just keep the setting on the lowest possible and make sure you can handle the plate its on with bare hands!
