Vegan Ground Beef

Gluten Free Raw Vegan Ground Beef

I wanted to develop a great raw vegan ground beef recipe that is also gluten free. It turned out to be easier than I was expecting! This delicious savory recipe features raw walnuts soaked in water overnight as the meat. I wanted to make this for a gluten free vegan bacon cheeseburger pizza (click here for recipe) and in doing so discovered it also turns out perfectly when baked in the oven on a pizza! Try it out sometime if you are not 100% raw. Here is how I did it:

We really love using walnuts as gluten free vegan meat! It’s delicious and works perfectly which is why we had to make a gluten free vegan meaty Italian pasta sauce recipe!

Maybe, maybe not but all I know is when I do make it we eat way too much of it and feel full for hours.  Here is how I did it:

Some would say you cannot eat this extra cheesy broccoli soup standing because your knees will buckle. Want to know how to make the perfect broccoli soup? Here’s how:
