- Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions:
- To prepare the “rice,” blend the sunflower seeds, walnuts, onion, and herbs in a food processor for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture resembles the texture of rice. Set aside. Thinly slice the ginger and marinate in a mixture of vinegar and water.
