• 1 c. sunflower seeds (no hulls) soaked overnight
• 2-3 cloves garlic
• Juice of 1/2 lemon

Drain and rinse soaked sunflower seeds. Put all into a blender until consistency of hummus. Cover and refrigerate up to 3 days.  Serve in a pita or tortilla with chopped veggies, or as a “raw wrap” in leaves of cabbage, lettuce, or Napa cabbage.  Or, serve on sliced cuks, zucchini or other veggies.
