Chia breakfast
Chia seed breakfast for 1
¼ cup chia seeds
1 cup water
berries or fruit of choice
Simply mix the seeds and water together, let sit 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cut up berries, or apple, or fruit of choice and add it to the mixture. This is like an oatmeal, but LIVING, so high in enzymes and life force energy. Chia seeds will actually absorb 9 times their weight in water, so if you have more time, you can add more water. Experiment with what works best for you. I have friends that make a big batch and eat it for a few days. For me, it works best to just make the portion I want to eat right then.

Chia Seed Crackers
Chia seed crackers/sandwich wraps~ requires dehydrator
1 cup chia seeds
4 cups water
1 tomato (any kind) chopped
1 tsp chili powder
1 cayenne pepper chopped (optional)
pinch sea salt
Stir together seeds and water and let sit for 35-45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add remaining ingredients and stir together. Place on dehydrator tray with a ParaFlexx™ Premium Non Stick Drying Sheet, (teflon).
Dehydrate for 12 hours, turning over and removing the Teflon halfway through. The longer you dry it, the crisper it will get. So for a soft sanwhich wrap, you only dehyrate for 8-10 hours. For very crispy crackers, dehydrate for 14 hours.

Butter pecan Icecream and toppings
“Butter pecan” ice cream with toppings
from Loretta
Ice cream (from rawfoodtalk.com):
5-10 Frozen bananas (about one per person) 1-2 tsp. vanilla
1-2 pinches of sea salt honey
1-2 C pecans
If there is time, soak the pecans in salted water and dehydrate before using. Place bananas, vanilla, and sea salt in food processor and whiz until smooth, like soft-serve ice cream. Spoon into bowls, mix in the pecans, and drizzle with honey while stirring. The honey solidifies when it hits the ice cream and forms a kind of swirl. This is a low-fat ice cream that strangely doesn’t taste like bananas at all.
Caramel topping (from Sweet Gratitude):
1 C raw macadamia nuts 0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 C almond milk 0.5 C agave syrup (amber, not light)
0.5 tsp vanilla extract (or equivalent ground pods)
1 Tblsp yacon syrup
If there is time, soak the macadamia nuts for a few hours to soften them. Mix and blend until smooth and creamy. Makes about 2 cups.
Chocolate topping (from Sweet Gratitude):
1 C almond milk 0.5 C agave syrup (can be light or amber)
2 oz. raw cacao powder 0.25 C raw cacao nibs
1 tsp. vanilla extract 0.25 tsp salt
4 oz soft pitted dates, like medjool or honey dates
Grind the cacao nibs in a coffee mill until powdered or use an equivalent amount of additional cacao powder. Blend until smooth and creamy. Makes about 2 cups.
Note: to make the almond milk, soak 1 C almonds overnight. Then rinse, drain, and blend with 2.5 C water. Strain through a nut milk bag. Makes about 24 ounces.
