Wonderful! I've been eating to many nuts, so this will be a nice change. I'm soaking some now to make in the morning.

I was making pumpkin seed milk or sunflower seed milk a few months back from Ani Phyo's "Ani's Raw food Kitchen (by the way, she has some other great milk recipes) I loved it...but it was upsetting my digestion....not to sure why, but unfortunately I had to stop making it and go back to the other alternatives. But sunflower or pumpkin seed milk issss greeeaaat!!! In Ani Phyo's book she suggests to use dates instead of agave and a half of a vanilla bean.

How long do you soak the pumpkin seeds? I've been looking for a way to use my bag o'them, and just ran out of my almond milk, so this is good and timely--thanks!
