Glad everyone is enjoying this recipe! Yes, it’s tomato halves which is how they normally come. Though I’ve used smaller ones. You can use less or more of most of the ingredients, depending on your preference.

Great website, Laura-Jane.

Wow. That looks delicious! Now I’m wishing I hadn’t eaten those walnuts on my salads all last week. LOL

I’ll definitely be making this one soon! YUM!

Kevin, that sucks! I wonder, did I mean to write 1/4 teaspoon?? I haven’t made this recipe lately so I can’t recall the amounts. Please advise us as to whether you felt that the recipe called for too much spice.

And to answer you question, no I have not tried those taco recipes. If you try them, please come back and let us know which one you recommend.

Yep, that makes sense. Those look like halves as the seeds are exposed.

I gave the recipe a shot assuming 10 halves and it was difficult to get down – I had to use quite a bit of lettuce and tomatoes to mask the taste. I think I overdid the cayenne/chili powder.

Have you tried the “taco meat” recipe that calls for coriander and cumin?

Or this one?

Hmm, great question! I’d never stopped to think about this before.

I took a look at my stash of sundried tomatoes, and I can’t even really tell whether they are whole or half! I think they are halves. At any rate, they look a lot like these sundried tomatoes.

So, I think you are correct that what I really mean is ten “halves” of sun-dried tomatoes.

Does that make sense??

I picked up some sundried tomatoes today to try this recipe, but they came in tomato halves. When you say 10 sundried tomatoes, is that 10 sundried halves or 10 whole tomatoes worth (20 halves)?

Now this is a recipe I’ve been searching for a long time, actually… I am also trying to learn how to make soft corn taco shells so I can make raw tacos for dinner. I LOVED tacos as a child and always got a thrill out of sinking my little teeth into a corn taco shell bursting with tomatoes, diced greens, onions, sour creme and spicey taco meat.

The idea of being able to enjoy a LIVING, Raw version of a favorite childhood food is very appealing, and dare I say it… acceptable!

Thank YOU for sharing the recipe!
