Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ c hemp seeds
  • ½ c sunflower seeds soaked overnight
  • 1 c aquafaba (chickpea water) or water
  • ¼ c apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp sea salt

Instructions

  • Drain and rinse the sunflower seeds. Then blend all ingredients in a blender until super smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides half way through so all the seeds are blended.
  • Drizzle on top of roast veggies, salads, wraps, and sandwiches. Or put in the fridge to thicken overnight. Will keep in the fridge for 4-5 days.

Notes

  • Gluten free: As is.
  • Sugar free: As is.
  • Nut free: As is.
  • Oil free: As is.
  • If you don’t have hemp or sunflower seeds, you can use half or all cashews.
  • If you want it extra digestible and creamy, soak your sunflower seeds the night before, then drain and rinse before using.
  • The aquafaba makes it extra thick and creamy, but if you don’t have any, water is also fine. I use the aquafaba more as an excuse to use it up - I have jars and jars of the stuff in the freezer leftover from all my chickpeas!
