When lighting up the grill seems like too much work and you’re craving plant-based food, these vegan fajitas require no heat at all and are topped with creamy guacamole — everyone's favorite avocado dip. While most of this recipe’s components are great for meal planning and can be enjoyed over a few days, make the guacamole the day you’ll be eating it to avoid discoloration. If you don't feel like making make cabbage leaf shells, these toppings also make a great bowl with fresh arugula or massaged kale as a base.

Ingredients
Method
Make the cashew sour “cream”: Place cashews in a small bowl and cover with ½ inch boiling water. Let soak 30 minutes. Drain cashews and place in a high-speed blender with water, lemon juice, vinegar, miso and salt. Blend until very smooth.
Make the mixed veg filling: Combine filling ingredients in a large bowl and let sit at room temperature for ½ hour to soften and marinate.
Make the spicy walnut taco “meat”: Pulse-chop walnuts in a food processor until coarse. Add paprika, cumin, coriander, Bragg Liquid Aminos and cayenne, and pulse just to combine.
To serve, place a heaping tablespoon of cashew sour “cream” in the center of the cabbage leaf. Top with walnut “meat,” mixed veg filling and guacamole and then garnish with radish and cilantro.

2 ripe avocados
¼ cup finely chopped red onion
1 small tomato, seeded and chopped
¼ cup roughly chopped cilantro and tender stems
1 serrano, seeded and chopped

Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. Spoon the avocado into a bowl and use a fork to smash into large pieces. Gently fold in remaining ingredients, keeping the avocado pieces fairly intact if possible.
