Hello, my Fellow Steemit Foodies!
This is my first foray into the world of VEGAN WEDNESDAY hosted by the very creative and inspirational 
I first shared this recipe on my Food Blog, www.AtMemesTable.com, last year. However, it's such an easy and delicious recipe, I wanted to share it with my Steemit Foodies for Vegan Wednesday.
Few dishes can beat this Vegan Taco Salad with Fresh Avocado Corn Salsa for taste! It also doesn’t hurt that this dish is easy to make, delicious and beautiful too!
Believe it or not, the main ingredient for this “meaty” Vegan Taco Salad with Avocado Corn Salsa is …wait for it…walnuts.
Just a few ingredients for a whole lot of goodness! This deeply flavored Walnut Taco Meat contains: walnuts, tamari, smoked paprika, hot Mexican Chili powder, garlic powder, coriander and cumin. This combination served as my base layer for a Mexican flavor profile that’s sure to please.
Put the nuts, tamari and seasonings into the food processor. Pulse until it’s a chunky texture…be sure not to over process! You don’t want “taco butter.”
Now, for the Avocado Corn Salsa.
