Raw Cheeze Itz

rawererin · #1 04-09-2008, 02:58 AM

The original recipe is from goneraw.com, I added a few things to it... and after a few hours in the dehydrator I scored them into little squares with a fondant cutter I found at Hobby Lobby, I'll post pics soon...

* 1 C Sunflower seeds (soaked 4 hrs and dehydrated)
* 1 C Brazil nuts (soaked and dehydrated)
* 1 C Almonds (soaked and dehydrated)
* 1 big tomato
* 1 cup red pepper, diced *I used a whole red pepper*
* ¼ C ground flax *I left this out*
* 1 pinch cumin or to taste *I used about 1 tsp Cumin*
* 2 teaspoons salt or a bit less to taste *I used at least 2 tsp salt*
*I added 1 Tbsp taco seasoning*
*I added 1 tsp onion powder*
*I added 1 tsp garlic powder*

Preparation

Process all ingredients and spread on teflex or parchment paper as thin as you like, after a few hours score with a pizza cutter and leave until dry on top then flip and leave until crispy (all day!) then eat eat eat!!!

Let the birds eat it outside...

That is such a funny idea. Next batch I'm making - I'm going to cut with a different cutter, and poke a hole in the top and use half the salt on the top instead of mixing in the recipe...

You are bad joz - and I love it!!!

OH man, you guys!!!! These crackers are fabulous! I made em as part of my savory dehydrator day this weekend and they really do taste somewhat cheesey - even though ive never eaten a cheeze it, im sure these are close, lol.

here are the changes I made:

I used soaked sunflower seeds and almonds - I never bothered to dehydrate.
I used brazil nuts, without soaking them
I added 1/4 cup soaked, sundried tomatoes
I used ground yellow flax (the recipe never specified which kind)
I added 1 small clove of garlic, minced
I added onion powder, to taste

yummers, ill definately made em again!

A friend is coming over tomorrow to give me a hand with my D day and I want to make these. I was wondering if I could get away with skipping the dehydration (like you, girlie, I usually don't bother) so I'm glad to know it will work. Yay!

Going to put almonds and sunseeds to soak right now...

Oh wait, I got a question first. Did you make the original recipe or Erin's mods (along with yours)?

How could I resist making these after all your raving, eh?

I followed in Fairygirl's footsteps with her changes and they turned out GREAT! Brought a platter to the community kitchen and it was a hit! Surprise, surprise! lol

I stopped in the gardens along the way to snatch a few pics...
