This recipe is from Jennifer Cornbleet's book and love it so much I always have a batch made up. I'll use it in wraps, on top of salads or on crackers.

Ingredients: 

1 cup soaked sunflower seeds (or pumpkin seeds - I like half and half)
1/3 cup soaked sun dried tomatoes
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp lemon juice
crushed garlic (or garlic powder)
dash of salt & pepper
dash of cayenne (depending on how much kick you like)

Preparation: 

Grind the seeds up as much as possible, then add the rest of the ingredients into the food processor and whizz until a well mixed pate. It will keep for five days so I often double the quantities. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Glad you liked it Mollysays.
daniefon, I don't think it makes too much difference either way as I often dont even bother measuring them at all and just eyeball it. It always turns out fine!

Silly question, but do you measure the tomatoes before or after soaking? I am anxious to try this!

Made this the other day - It was great and you're right, it kept well, I ate it all over a 4 day period.
