Pate Ideas

[grnstar77]

Hi everyone.
Im new here. I've been looking around the boards for a couple weeks but this is the first time Im actually posting.
I've been raw for two months with the exception of last weekend when I fell off the wagon cause I went on vacation and chose to eat anything I wanted. I've been back since Monday and it's been ok.

I need to start making more food cause really that is the key to this Ive found. If you dont have good food to eat, you WILL eat that pizza down the street, lol.

Soooo, I need ideas for pates. I've read on the Salmon pate but it doesn't really interest me. I actually can't find many recipes online for pates. I've made a mexican one which is nice, but I want some other flavors... just can't think of them....

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Michelle :)

Hi Welcome. I have copied a few that other people have posted here.

Lay-lay's Green Patte

5 sundried tomatos
1/2 cup of raw sunflower, hulled
1tbs of olive oil
1tsp of cayenne
3 scoops of pepper and tomato pulp
1 bunch of watercress
1tsp of sea salt
1/2 lime squeezed

Food process and enjoy on nori rolls, cucumbers, celery, carrots, lettuce, crackers or whatever

Sunflower Pate
3 cups sunflower seeds, soaked 8-12 hours. Sprouted for 2-4 hours
1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped scallions
1/4-1/2 cup raw tahini
1/4 cup liquid amino's, or 2 tablespoons nama shoyu, or pinch of sea
salt with add'l water, or none at all
2-4 slices red onion, cut in chunks
4-6 tablespoons coarsely chopped parsley
2-3 medium cloves garlic, coarsley chopped
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
Soak sunflower seeds 8-12 hours, drain, allow to sprout for 3-4 hours (leave
out on counter) then thoroughly rinse and drain removing as many of the
thin inner husks that float to the top as possible. In a food processor,
process the sunflower seeds, lemon juice, scallions, tahini, liquid
amino's, onion, parsley, garlic and cayenne until the mixture is a
smooth paste.
When thoroughly blended taste and adjust the seasoning. The pate will
develop a stronger garlic taste in a few hours. Yields a large mixing
bowl of pate. (approximately 8 cups)
