Raw Flax-tomato Crackers (dehydrated)

Total Time: 8 hrs 25 mins Preparation Time: 25 mins Cook Time: 8 hrs

Ingredients

  • Servings: 24
  • 1 cup golden flax seed (soaked for 2 hrs. in filtered water)
  • 8 sun-dried tomatoes, pieces (soaked for about 1/2 hour)
  • 1/3 bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 paste tomatoes (raw and chopped)
  • 1 medium red onion (chopped)
  • 1 garlic clove (put through a garlic press)
  • 1/4 cup herbs (your choice)
  • salt and pepper
  • paprika or cayenne, to taste

Recipe

  • 1 put all the ingredients except the soaked flax into a food processor.
  • 2 process until well combined.
  • 3 removed the mixture into a bowl and using a small hand mixer on low mix the flax seeds into the tomato mixture. you want the flax seeds in tact.
  • 4 spoon the mixture onto the teflex sheets of your dehydrator and using an off set spatula spread the mixture about 1/8 inch thick to within 1 inch of the edges. you don't want it too thick or thin. experiment with this part to your likeing. i made it too thin at first and the crackers were very brittle and hard to remove from the teflex sheet. do this until you use up the mixture.
  • 5 dehydrate for at least 8-12 hours at about 110'f.
  • 6 its very dry where i live so 8 hours was enough. you should flip these over at some point as well and dry for another 8-12 hours if necessary.
  • 7 as you make these again and again you can change the herbs for a different taste.
  • 8 these would be delicious with a slice of tomato or avocado. you could also crumble them up for a nice topping over a green salad.
  • 9 bon appetit!
