Not Tuna Pate

1 C sunflower seeds, soaked 8-12 hours, drained, and rinsed
1/2 C almonds, soaked 8-12 hours, drained, and rinsed
1/4 C water
2 T lemon juice
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 C minced celery
2 T minced red onion
2 T minced parsley

Process the sunflower seeds, almonds, water, lemon juice, and salt in a food processor until it becomes a paste. You can then mix everything together in a bowl or I like to add the celery, onion, and parsley and pulse a couple of times. 

A great variation to this is Not Salmon Pate, you add 1/2 C grated carrots to the food processor along with the almonds, sunflower seeds, water, lemon juice, and salt. Replace the parsley with a tablespoon minced fresh dill weed, or 2 teaspoons dried.

This is great to add to a salad, use in a lettuce wrap, or stuffed in a red bell pepper half.
