Seed Cheeze Sauce
I use this in my Deep Dish Tortilla Pie recipe here.
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1 cup water
1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and quartered*
6 T lemon juice
3 T nutritional yeast
1 t onion powder
1/2 t garlic powder
1/2 t sea salt
Blend all ingredients until smooth. If needed, soak seeds in water to soften for 4 hours before blending. *For a spicier cheeze sauce, add 1 – 2 red jalapeños, with or without seeds, in place of the bell peppers.
To cut out some of the fats, use 1/2 cup steamed potato in place of 1/2 cup seeds. It works great!
