Vegan Sunflower Seed Taco Meat

2 cups unsalted sunflower seeds

1 red onion

4 cloves garlic

¼ cup sun dried tomatoes in oil ((*See post if avoiding oil))

1 tbsp avocado (or olive) oil

1 tbsp taco seasoning

2 tsp no soy soy sauce ((sub for soy sauce, coconut aminos, tamari) )

1 juice of a lime

Soak sunflower seeds in a bowl, covered with water overnight.
Drain water. Put them into a food processor and pulse until you have meat like crumbles. *Be careful not to over process or you will end up with sunflower butter.
Chop onions, garlic, and sun dried tomatoes very fine.
Add oil to a skillet, and saute your onions until translucent (about 2-3 minutes).
Add in the garlic for 1 more minute.
Sprinkle the taco seasoning across and stir to combine.
Add in sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 1 more minute.
Add in the crumbled sunflower seeds and stir very well.
Pour in the no soy sauce (or substitute) and the lime juice. Stir well.
Cook for another 4-5 minutes.
Take off the stove and serve.
