3 cups mushroom, stemmed and halved button
1 cup white onion, diced
1 cup walnuts
1 can chickpeas, drained
½ jalapeño, seeded and roughly chopped
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons paprika

Steps:

  • Add the mushrooms, onion, walnuts, chickpeas, jalapeño, and garlic to a food processor. Pulse until very coarsely chopped.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the mushroom and chickpea mixture to the pan. Sprinkle in the paprika, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, salt, smoked paprika, coriander, chili powder, pepper, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and cinnamon. Sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring often, until lightly browned.

  • Add the apple cider vinegar and soy sauce. Stir and sauté for 2 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
  • Serve the chorizo hot in your favorite dishes.
