With a texture and taste surprisingly like chopped liver, this appetizer is a hit with EVERYONE who tries it. I am constantly giving out the recipe so I decided it was time to post it here. Originally the recipe called for a can of Le Soeur peas, but I switched to frozen organic peas to make it real. I also soak and dehydrate the walnuts so that they are crispy and easy to digest. This recipe is perfect for those on the SCD or GAPS diets and a real party pleaser.
Walnut Vegetable Dip
Ingredients
Two cups cooked organic peas (start with three cups of frozen peas as they shrink when cooked)
One medium onion sauteed in extra virgin olive oil until browned and soft
3/4 to 1 cup walnuts that have been soaked and dehydrated (where to buy soaked and dehydrated nuts)
two hard boiled eggs
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Steam or boil the peas until they are soft and then drain
- Chop a medium onion and saute until browned and soft
- In a food processor processor the walnuts until they are chopped small
- Add the peas and onions and process until the mixture is smooth
- Add the salt and pepper and mix
- Remove from processor into a bowl and hand chop the two hard boiled eggs leaving a little as garnish
- Chill before serving
