Step by Step Instructions

For the Potatoes
Wash and cut the potatoes in half widthwise. Do not peel. In a pot filled with salted water, boil until the potatoes are fork tender but not mushy. Once cooked, drain and set aside to cool. When cool enough to touch, cut potatoes into 1/4" rounds and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and spray with olive oil spray. Bake at 450F until crispy.
For the Taco Meat
Spray a frying pan with olive oil spray and heat the pan to medium. Add the mushrooms and cook stirring occasionally until they begin to brown and soften, approx 5 minutes.  Stir in the walnuts and cook for another 2 minutes.  Stir in tamari, cumin, coriander, garlic, oregano and paprika. Add the balsamic glaze and stir.  Turn off the heat and add the beans and all other remaining ingredients. Taste and adjust the seasoning to taste, then set aside.
For the Salsa
Mix all ingredients into a bowl and allow to sit while other components of the dish are being prepared.
For the Avocado
Peel and mash avocado with a fork, season with salt, black pepper and juice of 1 lime. Mix well then set aside.
For the Assembly
To assemble the nachos, use a large platter and arrange half the crispy potatoes overlapping some of them. Top with 3/4 of the mushroom meat and salsa ingredients. Add another layer of potatoes and repeat the layering. Add the avocado, scallions and cilantro. Top with a squeeze of lime juice and lime slices
