Nori Rolls with Pumpkin Seed-Parsley Pâté
This nutrient dense lunch or snack will keep you energized all day. Soaked pumpkin seeds are more digestible and also easy to blend down into a paste. Add your favorite veggies to the nori rolls along with the pâté. Try sliced cucumbers, red bell peppers, shredded carrots, or spinach leaves.
Pâté
Rinse and drain the soaked pumpkin seeds. Add them to a food processor fitted with the “s” blade. Add the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and Herbamare. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides if necessary. Add the parsley and process again. Add water, a tablespoon at a time, until you get the desired consistency.
Spread pâté onto nori. Add the avocado and micro greens to one end of the nori sheet, then roll. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
Yield: 4 nori rolls
Nutrition Tip: Pumpkin seeds are high in minerals such as manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, and zinc. Soaking the seeds enables these minerals to become more available.
