Raw Vegan Sesame Flax Vegetable Crunchy Munchie Snack Crackers Sandwich Bread Pizza Crust RAW RECIPE!!!

When you become a vegetarian it seems like you are cutting a lot of things from your diet. Until you really get into it. Then you realize you have barely opened the top drawer of REAL, Cruelty-free food there is out there!

I quit eating bread, pasta and all things cooked grain long before I went vegan.

I started eating apples instead of crackers. A couple of apples and hummus or some nice goat cheese was a typical lunch or dinner for me.

Then one day I heard about these:













I have been making them since I moved up here but I don't think I have written about them until now, so here we go!

OOwee! Inspired by Isle Dance I have made a batch of green AND brown/red crackers

The green ones are made from pulp left over from juicing celery, parsely, cucumbers and some garlic. The orange-y ones are carrot and the reddish ones are sun dried tomato and red bell pepper.

These are simple to make.
You know I never measure anything, but here are the ingredients:

Whole Flax seeds
Sesame seeds
whatever vege or pulp you have laying around from juicing
a bit of salt
garlic or onion or hing or oregano or whatever seasoning you wish.*
a little water
Food process them up to a doughy consistency and spread on a sheet of parchment paper. I put them in the oven at the lowest heat for about 1 hour then flip them and put back for one more hour.

Then transfer them to the deyhdrator until crispy.**

Make a big batch. Once they are dried they keep in the freezer almost indefinitely. I usually (try to) make enough for a week or more at a time. ***

They are great guilt free munchies for those moments when you want SOMETHING but don't quite know what. They are a great transitioning food. E loves them! I haven't been able to get the boy to try them yet, :(

I make larger ones for sandwich bread and round ones for pizza crusts. Great for a quick lunch or dinner idea!














Spread on some seed cheese or vege pate, add sliced bell peppers, cucumbers, lettuce, sprouts, soaked sundried tomatoes, whatever catches your fancy!

I am sure you can find better recipes for RAW FLAX CRACKERS on the internet, but I hope this can be an inspiration to you.


Footnotes
* you could also make them sweet, I suppose. I haven't tried that yet.

** I heat these at 170F so they may not be considered 100% raw. They can be made in a dehydrator at a temp of 125 or lower for a few hours, flipped and left overnight until crispy
*** They do get eaten fast. I've never been able to make a batch last more than a week!
