Spicy Sunflower Seed and Bell Pepper Pate
Yield: 2 cups
Ingredients
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
2-3 cloves garlic
1/4 C lemon juice
1/4 C tamari, nama shoyu or bragg’s
2 C sunflower seeds (soaking optional)
Directions
First, place the red bell pepper, garlic, lemon juice and tamari in the food processor and process to as close as a liquid as possible. Then, add sunflower seeds and process until smoother than chunky peanut butter, but not as smooth as creamy peanut butter.
This recipe is delightful in a wrap with veggies, dehydrated as croquettes, or - my favorite - plated up alongside celery for a fast and tasty treat!
Sunflower seeds are high in Vitamin E, which is well known for it's anti-inflammatory properties and also provide a significant amount of magnesium and selenium!
