Steps:

Cover the sunflower seeds with at least 1/4 inch of water and soak, at room temperature in an air tight container, for at least 24 hours. The seeds are ready when they have nearly doubled in size.
Drain the seeds and pulse half (about 1 cup) with the lemon juice, mustard and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor until almost smooth, scraping down the bowl as needed.
Add the remaining seeds, along with the dill, parsley, paprika, celery, shallot, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles tuna salad. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Fill a whole wheat wrap with lettuce, tomato, avocado and the vegan tuna salad.

VEGETARIAN TUNA SALAD

A friend passed this on from an old cookbook, and I love it! It doesn't taste exactly like tuna, but it's similar. It's great for a sandwich, very easy to make, and high in protein. If you're trying to make it super healthy, go for low-fat mayo.

MAIN DISH SALAD WITH TUNA AND VEGETABLES

For the past couple of decades restaurant menus have named any salad that features tuna, whether fresh or canned, raw or cooked, a Niçoise salad. Few of them resemble the traditional summer salad of Nice made with tomatoes and thin-skinned green peppers, cucumbers and other local vegetables such as fava beans and baby artichokes, olives, anchovies, hard-cooked eggs and oil-packed tuna. I often make a meal of a tuna, potato and vegetable salad. If tomatoes are out of season, I shred a carrot; and if green beans don't look good I use broccoli. Make sure to include lots of minced fresh herbs.

Steps:

In a small bowl or pyrex measuring cup, whisk together the vinegar and lemon juice with the garlic, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard. Whisk in the olive oil and yogurt if using.
Steam the potatoes above 1 inch simmering water for 10 to 15 minutes, until tender. Transfer to a large salad bowl, aand season with salt and pepper. Add the tuna and while the potatoes are hot toss with 1/4 cup of the dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
If using green beans, bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil, and fill a bowl with ice water. Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook 4 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Transfer to the ice water, cool and drain. Dry on paper towels. If using broccoli, steam for 5 minutes, refresh with cold water, and dry on paper towels. Add the cooked vegetables to the salad bowl, along with the red or green pepper, carrots if using, and half the herbs, and toss together with another 1/4 cup of the dressing.
Assemble the salad: Either add the remaining ingredients to the salad bowl and toss with the remaining dressing, or toss the salad greens and remaining herbs with the remaining dressing and pile onto a platter or wide salad bowl. Top with the potato-tuna-vegetable mixture and garnish with the tomatoes, olives and eggs.

CHEAP VEGETARIAN TUNA SALAD

Many other vegetarian tuna salad uses tofu or other relatively expensive ingredients, but not this one! Just a can of chickpeas and a couple other ingredients you probably already have in the fridge. It has a pretty realistic texture - add whatever you like, and would normally put in tuna salad. The ingredient measurements are approximate - I have never actually measured how much to put in, just eyeballed it. Please put in as much or little as you want, or whatever you want.

Calories 97 per serving

Place all the ingredients in a medium bowl- chopped hearts of palm, onion, celery, pickle or capers, fresh herbs, mustard, vegan mayo and mix well. Taste and season with salt and pepper and a pinch of sugar.
Most hearts of palm are canned with water, salt and citric or ascorbic acid- so there is an element of tanginess already here, but if you want to add more, feel free to add lemon zest, or a few drops of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.
Other ways to elevate this is to add a sprinkling of dulse flakes, a little caper juice or pickle juice, a pinch of cayenne, few drops of Braggs liquid amino acid- all optional here, but fun to play with.
Serve over toasted bread, top with sliced avocado (season with salt and pepper) and microgreens. Or turn this into a hearty wrap.
