I wanted to share a little sweet treat that can be perfect for Valentine day or any occasion!

Lime bites...



What you'll need:
3/4 cup Almond meal
2 Tbsp lime zest
2 Tbsp lime juice
pinch of Salt 
1/4 cup agave (or raw honey)
few spinach leaves
2 cups shredded coconut

For the chocolate:

1/4cp raw cacao powder
1/4 melted coconut oil
2 Tbs agave
salt (pinch)

Mix the 4th first ingredients in a food processor; add the agave, spinach and then the coconut (do not over process); pulse to get a nice texture.
Form some balls in your palm and dehydrate them up to 1 hour (at 105F)
While they are in the dehydrator, prepare your chocolate:

Place them in a dish that can be store in the freezer for few hours (1h to 1h30 must be good)

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!
