    Mine is simplier

    1/2 food processor or how ever much you want to make
    carrots and walnuts equal parts
    Garlic
    touch of oil if you like,
    Poultry Seasoning
    1/4 onion

    Blend and stuff into a pepper
    If you want a complete protein, and in flax seeds/hemp seeds
    add a touch more EFA oil if you want to add the seeds

    Amazing and simple.
