Winter Pesto

Directions

1. 1
   Combine the sunflower seeds and pressed or finely minced garlic in a food processor till crumbly, just slightly chopped.
2. 2
   If you have a mini-food processor, it's terrific here!
3. 3
   Add the parsley and thyme and blend to make it sort of pasty.
4. 4
   With the processor still going, drizzle in the oil, and add the salt and pepper.
5. 5
   Add a little water to achieve a creamier consistency.
6. 6
   Freezes very well.
7. 7
   Use like basil pesto.
8. 8
   I especially like this thinly spread on bread, with tahini and lemin juice.
