'My New Roots': Raw Tacos

Today I tried a raw taco recipe from the blog "My New Roots"

I thought it was pretty good. I am not sure how long I lasted feeling full. It sort of felt like eating a salad with nuts, but it was good. I am still trying to figure out this whole "feeling full" deal without loading on the meat. I am nursing right now so I know that takes a toll on my body and calories are a big thing for me when I nurse. Hopefully this is just a nursing phase...
