Flax Crackers

Flax crackers are great when you'd like a little crunchy in your meal!
There is few different recipes for them,
Here is how I do mine:

You'll need: 
3/4 cup flax seed (soaked)
2 to 3 cups carrot pulp (what you get when you make carrot juice!)
1/2 tomato or red pepper
garlic to taste
onion to taste (1/8 for us!)
Salt, pepper

Blend everything in the food processor

Here is what you get!

Pour on a te-flex sheet




and spread it to form a nice big square


Score with your spatula the shape you want to give them



I just make them to small rectangle

dehydrate for 4 hours (at 105F)
Then flip them over and take off the teflex sheet 
Dehydrate for another 2 hours

and here are some crunchy and tasty crackers


perfect for your salad, dips, sandwich and more...

Enjoy!

Lost 2 pounds this week (that's enough for me now!)

I already gave the recipe  last Christmas!



I am totally convinced that a plant (fruits and veggies) base diet is a key to good health
and I really love the recommendations from Jason Vale!

Thank you for this awesome week!

put your cheesy dip on your kale


and stir very well
You might need to get your hands in it to cover each little spaces!


lay each piece on dehydrator sheet (or 2!)


and dehydrate for about 4 hours (on 105F)


after 3 hours I take of the Teflon sheet to finish to dry them.
