Artichoke Sandwich Spread

3 organic artichokes
3 cloves raw organic garlic
1/4 c raw organic pine nuts
1/4 c raw organic sunflower seeds
1/4 c organic water cured kalmata olives
Celtic Sea Salt
1 tbls. organic extra virgin olive oil

Sandwich Fixins
2 slices of Rubschlager Sunflower Seed Bread
2 tbls Vegenaise
1/2 c alfalfa sprouts

Steam artichokes until tender. Cool, then peel off leaves and scrape off the meat. You will get about 1 1/2 c of meat with 3 artichokes. Scrape the heart and stem clean and mash all of the artichoke meat in a bowl, add crushed garlic, chopped olives, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. Mixture should be relatively thick enough to sit on bread without falling off.
