Ingredients
-
*1 cup of soaked raw sunflower seeds (soaked for 4-12 hours, ain't no thang)
*1 beautifully ripe avocado
*5 large carrots
*3 stalks of celery
*dill, to taste (I use 5 sprigs)
*1/4 cup of mustard (make sure it's vegan - might be cheating a raw diet a smidge - http://vegweb.com/index.php?board=275.0 for recipes)
*A few scallions (I used the tops of a bunch, but who's counting?)
*Paprika, to taste
*A good bit of Bragg's liquid aminos, to taste (feel free to substitute nama shoyu if you're uncle moneybucks, or soy sauce if you're not concerned with raw-ness)
Directions
Easier than a raw pie.
Take the soaked sunflower seeds (drained, of course!) and blend them up with a peeled lime, some dill, and the flesh of an avocado (I just squish it out since it's going to be blended anyway).. Get yourself a tasty paste going.. get it in a bowl.
Once you've got a bowl of tasty paste, grate the carrots to get that tuna-stringy texture.. Add the mustard and paprika to taste, and chop the scallions and celery into tiny texture-adding bits. Finally, add the bragg's (or nama shoyu... or soy sauce, if you're desperate) to taste until you've got yourself a tasty dip/salad that you can put on crudites, raw flax crackers, or a spoon!
Happy grating! :D
Serving Size: makes about 6 half-cup servings... I think...
