Raw Tortilla Chips

This recipe was a Hail Mary to try and make something for my very picky toddler. We've tried to keep him as close to a raw food diet as possible. Sometimes he just would not eat what we made him.

Luckily we made him this and he loves them! He will easy a whole tray if we let him :-)

I've even made since variations on this recipe since then to include different vegetables.

2 cups of Sweet Corn
3/4 cups of Ground Flax Seed
2 cups of water
1/4 Teaspoon of salt
(optional) a little lime juice

Put all of the above ingredients into a blender (I use a Vitamix, conceivably this recipe could kill another blender, due to how much the flax seed thickens the mix during the blending process). Poor onto a few dehydrator trays and spread it around to thin it down to a couple of milimeters thick. Dehydrate at 115 for 10 - 12 hours.

Enjoy with Raw Salsa!

Unfried Rice

The origin of this recipe was actually pretty simple. I was hungry, I wanted something quick and I wanted something raw. I had just played around with the idea of using cauliflower as a rice substitute earlier in the week and I remembered that way back in college I had regularly made refried rice. 

I always enjoyed it then, but since I had stopped eating eggs years ago when I became a vegan I decided that it may be time to try something new. 

1 head Cauliflower
1/2 cup Edamame
1/2 cup Peas
1/2 cup Corn
1/2 Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Tamari
1/4 Flax or Hemp Oil

Process Head of Cauliflower in Food Processor to “rice” like texture. 

Remove and add to serving bowl.Process Red Bell Pepper in Food processor. 

Add all veggies to serving bowl. Mix throughly.

Needless to say it was a hit. Just keep in mind that cauliflower has a strong odor, and tastes a little different when it is left out for long periods of time. So gobble this up the day you make it!

Buen Provecho!
