Ingredients
1
cup
raw walnuts
1
teaspoon
reduced-sodium soy sauce
1
teaspoon
dry basil
½
teaspoon
smoked paprika
1
teaspoon
garlic powder
Instructions
For 20 minutes, soak walnuts in cold water. Next, drain water from walnuts.
Then, add the walnuts, soy sauce, basil smoked paprika, and garlic powder into a food processor/high-powered blender.
Pulse until the walnuts look “meat-like.” Don’t pulse so much that it ends up like butter.
Notes
Adjust the soy sauce as you like – depending on how salty (or not) you like your food.
Walnuts, in general, are
high in calories and fat,
so if that’s something you’re concerned about, just take a
peek at its nutritional value
and serve accordingly.
I don’t have a food processor, actually, just my
Nutribullet
. To pulse, I just blend for half a second, 4-5 times.
