*Sprouted Grain Tortilla 2 Cups Sprouted Wheat Berry, Rye or Kamut 1 Cup Ground Golden Flax Seed 1 Zucchini 2 Tbsp. Chili Powder 1 Tsp. Sea Salt 2 Cups Water In a high powered blender combine first the sprouted grains, zucchini, spices and then ground flax seed. Blend on high until a thick paste that is well combined forms.

*Garden Crackers 4 Cups Ground Golden Flax Seeds 2 Cups Carrot Juice (and leftover pulp) 2 Cups Water 4 Tomatos 1 Clove Garlic 1 Stem Green Onion 1 Tbsp. Dried Dill or Italian Seasoning 1 Tsp. Sea Salt In a high powered blender combine the carrot juice, water, tomato, garlic green onion, sea salt and dried seasonings until a puree forms. Add in ground flax seeds and blend until thick paste forms.
*Marinated Vegetables Vegetables are quite nice in the dehydrator in fact just coating vegetables like squash, red bell peppers and mushrooms with a little bit of high quality extra virgin olive oil and dried spices will yield a nice soft vegetable within an hour with an enhanced flavor profile. Try the marinade and vegetable mix below to get an idea of what is possible in your own kitchen.
*Cookies - Sweet Sedona’s 4 Cups Macadamia Nuts or Cashews 1 Cup Raw Cacao (optional) 2/3 Cup Raw Honey or Agave Nectar 1 Tsp. Cinnamon 1 Tsp. Sea Salt 1 Dash Nutmeg For Garnish – Coconut Shreds, Soaked Gogi Berries or Hemp Seeds In a food processor add the nuts, cacao, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt. Process down until a nut meal forms being careful not to process into butter at this point. It is important the mixture still has body to create cookies.
To prepare the brownie: In a food processor, process nuts to a meal being careful not to over process into a butter. Then add to the mixture the cacao and spices and pulse to combine. Turn on the processor all the way and add the desired sweetener from the top while processing until a dough ball forms. Remove mixture from processor and spread over covered dehydrator sheet ¾ inches thick. Dehydrate for 8 hours at 115 degrees. To prepare the fudge: Blend all ingredients well until a rich thick sauce forms.
*Dehydrated Spices Choose the leaves of spice(s) you want to dehydrate: - Parsley - Dill - Rosemary - Thyme - Oregano - Basil - Sage - Whatever spice you want dried Chose the spice(s) you want to dehydrate. If you want to keep them separate, keep each spice on different trays – if not, then put any / all the spices together, leaves only. Dehydrate at 110 degrees until desired crispness.
Soy sauce (especially good on tomatoes) – Nama Shoyu or low Sodium, wheat free San-J Soy Sauce Fruit concentrates: Black cherry Cranberry Elderberry Pomegranate Orange Pineapple Clean fruit(s), take off skin, where appropriate (like bananas, papaya, pineapple), and take out pits (like plums, apricots, cherries, etc.) and cut / make into thin slices. Put fruit into a bowl and coat / cover with desired marinades / sweetener(s) / spice(s) – or leave as is.
In blender mix ingredients together – adding first one cup of water, and adding more water to create ‘thick soup’ like consistency (up to 2 cups). Pour pecan mixture into glass pie plate and put into dehydrator and dehydrate at 110 degrees until a ‘mouse like’ consistency – check after 4 – 6 hours. Make / blend currant sauce thinning to desired thickness by adding ½ water and slowly adding more.
