Servings: 4

 

Ingredients:

2 tsp avocado oil or other extra virgin olive oil

½ large head cauliflower (you need 4 cups finely chopped)

¾ tsp New Mexico red chili powder

fresh cilantro, chopped

¼ tsp garlic powder

1 Hass avocado

1 tbsp fresh jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped

2 tsp fresh lime juice

1 onion

1 teaspoon salt

1 tomato

2 cups Walnuts (chopped)

Equipment:

food processor

aluminum foil

baking sheet

bowl

oven

mixing bowl

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Set the nuts to soak in a bowl of water 2-8 hours before preparing the meat.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375 F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  3. Finely chop the cauliflower into rice-sized pieces, or pulse in the food processor until the desired consistency. Toss with the oil and spread onto the baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for 18 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  4. While the cauliflower rice is cooking, prepare the guacamole and taco meat.
  5. Cut the avocado into large chunks and place into a small bowl. Add the lime juice and mash the avocado to a chunky puree or your preferred consistency. Stir in the cilantro, jalapeno, onion and spices. Set aside.
  6. Remove the nuts from the water and place into a small food processor. Discard the water. Pulse the nuts until theyve reached a ground meat consistency, I find about 5-7 pulses works. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the salt, cumin, garlic powder, and red chili powder. Set aside.
  7. When the cauliflower is done, transfer to a mixing bowl while still warm and stir in the lime, cilantro, and salt.
  8. To assemble the bowls, layer 1 cup of the cauliflower rice in a bowl with taco nut meat, a dollop of guacamole, fresh tomatoes, and a sprinkling of fresh cilantro.
  9. Serve immediately with an additional slice of lime if desired.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
