NOT SO "TUNA" SALAD


MOCK TUNA CUCUMBER ROLLS


Peel the cucumber, cut it in half and trim off the ends.  Then, using a small paring knife, cut the seeds out and stuff them with the mock tuna.  Make sure you stuff it tightly.  Once the cucumber is stuffed, roll it in a mixture of black and white sesame seeds or gomashio.

Mock Tuna
Stuffs two cucumbers

For Filling:
Pulp from 1/2 lb. juiced carrots, or shredded carrots
1 1/2 cups soaked sunflower seeds
1/4 c. diced onion, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1 Tbsp. dulse flakes
2 Tbsp. fresh dill, minced
1/2 tsp. Mustard powder
1/4 tsp. course ground pepper or to taste


To make the filling:  Juice the carrots or shred in the food processor or by hand (oh yeah!), grind sunflower seeds in processer until course, mix with the chopped veggies then stir in the creaminess and serve up on sprouted bread, crackers, crisp lettuce leaves or in a nori roll-up sushi-style!



Cashew Mayo:
1 c  cashews. Soaked and  drained
1 clove garlic
1/2 c. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 tsp. Celtic sea salt
1/4 c. water, use it as needed

To make the mayo: In food processor, process sunflower seeds or cashews and garlic until crumbly and fine, like corn meal.  Add the rest of the creaminess ingredients and blend until smooth!  You may also use a high speed blender if you have on
