here are the recipes i promised you.
cashew crackers aka crazy bread (requires dehydrator)
1 red pepper
1/3 cup cashews
2 teaspoons minced onion, chives and garlic
pinch salt
pinch paprika
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
blend everything together in the food processor until smooth. spread onto a teflex sheet to about 6" square. score with your spatula to make the shapes you want. dehydrate overnight then remove teflex sheet and flip over. they should be light and crispy in time for dinner!
this is a small quantity recipe, we ate the lot for dinner, they were so yummy fresh out of the dehydrator. next time i'll make double the quantity. i made 6 crackers and piled pate on top for dinner, but you could score them into triangles to use as snacking 'tortilla chips' too.
karen knowler's carrot almond pate
2 large carrots
2 cups almonds
1/2 cup coarsely chopped red onion
1/4 cup lemon juice
pinch sea salt
water
my tweaks: i swapped a few almonds for some sunflower seeds and i added a few drops of bragg's liquid aminos. next time i'll soak the almonds first and possibly add a little oil to improve the texture.
as there was too much for just us two to use up without getting bored of pate, i rolled some spoonfuls into little balls and stuck them in the dehydrator overnight and took them to work to have as a side to my lunch. that worked very well!
today i was hungry again by the time i was leaving work. need to take something to snack on in the late afternoon, so that i don't get home and eat too much before dinner. but i'm doing well. i signed up for bunny berry's 100 day raw food challenge, too. that should be fun. what a crazy lady!
today i had:
water, tea
green smoothie
salad with sprouts, chopped veggies, lemon, honey, mustard dressing & carrot-almond balls
more tea
larabar
fresh pressed orange juice
coconut macaroon
edamame - not raw, steamed, salted beans
kale salad
carrot-almond pate balls (as in recipe above)
it's all good.
