Dairy and soy free sour cream.

So what’s it made out of?

Don’t’ worry it’s packed with flavour this  “Sour Cream” is made from sunflower seeds!

What you will need:

Sunflower “Sour Cream”

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup raw soaked sunflowers seeds
  • juice of  1 or a ½ lemon or lime to taste
  • 5 tbsp. water (approx.)

Directions:

Put all ingredients except water in a high speed blender or food processor and blend, adding water one tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. If you want a thick cream, use less water, for a thinner sauce, use more. (You will not achieve a perfectly smooth sauce with a food processor, but it is still delicious!)

 

i suggest teaming it with my raw salsa and popping in in coz leaves as a crunch snack or dinner…

  2. Cut up the veggies into small pieces, chop the cilantro and add everything to the dressing bowl. Fold to combine and let sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavours to meld.

Place the sour cream in the bottom of coz leafs and dress with the salsa and fresh coriander on top!
