About Walnut meat

Walnut meat is a plant-based protein alternative made from raw walnuts, often blended with flavorful seasonings such as garlic, onion, and spices. Its origin lies in vegan and vegetarian cuisine, where it is commonly used as a substitute for ground meat in dishes like tacos, chili, and pasta sauces. Rich in heart-healthy fats, fiber, and antioxidants, walnut meat offers essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, magnesium, and protein, promoting brain health and reducing inflammation. Despite its health benefits, it is calorie-dense due to its high fat content, so portion control is recommended for those monitoring caloric intake. Naturally gluten-free and versatile, walnut meat caters to diverse dietary needs while supporting sustainable eating habits. Its mild yet nutty flavor and crunchy texture make it a nutritious and satisfying choice in many meals.
