A spot of raw food action

Raw snacks experiment

I have only dabbled with raw food now and then (summer and warm weather helping), but now, with the acquisition of a new dehydrator toy, I have been up to some domestic creations.

I truly believe that including some raw food in our -modern- diets is extremely beneficial, and without going to extremes with it all, unprocessed, uncooked foods are really good for you! (wikipedia will provide all the scientific facts)
So I have been playing around and experimenting with stuff, one of my first creations is above - raw flax crackers. yum yum. They're fantastic, easy, delicious and satisfying and we all know (kind of) that flax seeds are full of omega 3 fatty acids, so excellent for the brain, immune system etc etc. The ingredients are so simple too - flax seeds (soaked), sea salt, pepper, seaweed (optional) and a dash of lemon juice. That's it! All you need is a bit of creativity, a taste for things slightly out of the ordinary -packets that is- and a dehydrator....

More soon on this subject. Yogis like eating!
