Sunflower seeds and sunflower seed meals are so underrated. First of all, sunflower meal is a byproduct of crushing sunflower seed for oil so it's a great way to reduce food waste; secondly, they would turn quite a few heads in conversations around sustainability for their drought resistance and the relatively low amounts of chemicals used to grow them.
It takes approximately 46 gallons of water to produce a pound of sunflower seeds. That’s a mere sip compared with the nearly two thousand gallons required for a pound of almonds.
They're also super allergy-friendly as they offer a rich, nutty taste but they're not nuts! And on top of all that, they have such a wonderful texture and aroma that can elevate your pasta sauce, nacho "meat," and even burger patties and meatless meatballs.
