Raw Vegan Hard Shell Tacos Recipe

Recipe by Davi – Raw VeganistaCourse: Main CourseCuisine: MexicanDifficulty: Easy

These raw vegan tacos are low fat, oil free and nut free.

For these you will need:
– Food processor
– Food dehydrator
– Silicone dehydrator sheets (my own preference)
– Measuring spoons
– Rubber spatula
– Cardboard paper roll cylinders (yes, I have a tendency to reuse virutally everything in some way)

Ingredients

  • The Taco Shells
  • 1 medium courgette, chopped

  • 1/2 red bell pepper

  • 2 cups freshly ground flaxseed

  • 1 jalapeño pepper

  •  Juice from 1 lemon

  •  1/2 clove garlic (optional)

  •  Pinch Celtic sea salt (optional)

  • Low Fat Raw Vegan Taco Filling
  • 2 carrots – roughly chopped into segments

  • 1 small beetroot – roughly chopped into segments

  • 1-2 cloves fresh garlic (optional)

  • 1 bunch curly kale

  • 1/4 Cup flaked dulse

  • 1/4 Cup flaked dulse

  • 1 tsp cayenne *

  • 1.5-2 tsp ground cumin seed *

  • 1 tsp ground chipotle peppers *

  • Juice from 1 fresh lemon

  • 1/8-1/2 tsp spirulina (optional – deepens colour so that it appears to be browned/cooked)

  • Celtic sea salt to taste, if deemed necessary (dulse should lend the necessary amount of saltiness to satisfy most raw vegans, though more may be desired by those more accustomed to cooked foods).

Directions

  • Raw Vegan Taco Shell Recipe
  •  Place vegetables & lemon juice into food processor & blend until well incorporated (should bear a similar consistency to soup).
  • Add ground flax in increments of 1 cup at a time, pulsing mixture & allowing it to become evenly incorporated until is reaches a consistency similar to that of wet dough.
  • Using a rubber spatula, spread dough mixtures to circular shapes onto silicone dehydrator sheets.
  • Place trays into dehydrator and leave to dry for 1.5 hours at 108°F
  • Whilst shells are flexible, lay down cardboard rolls in center of each circle & fold shell to bend around roll.Cardboard Roll to make Taco Shells
