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.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
