Spicy Walnut Burritos, Raw Vegan

Spicy Walnut Burritos, Raw Vegan

This vegan walnut meat has been a hit at the Annual Chili Cook Off in my town each year.  I easily convert this taco meat into chili with mixing the salsa into the taco meat. In a sea of serious meat lovers, I offer my meat alternative chili and get them excited and amazed at how wonderful vegan chili can be.   Many people that stop by my booth don't even realize it is vegan, let alone raw vegan.  They love it and bring over friends to try it.  The vegetarians in the crowd are always over the top delighted to find something that can eat and end up buying some to take home.  This became so popular at the Chili Cook Off that we added it to our main menu.  Now you can celebrate year round.  Prepare.  Eat. Enjoy.
