Green Goddess Dip

One comment

This recipe is meant to be substitutable.  Instead of the spinach, add whatever you have, wild, tame, spicy, anything green.  Particularly great for the microbiome would be watercress, a little arugula and some wild greens like nettle.  Nettle, almost half of its dry weight from protein, with proline, glycine and glutamine, nettle is the bone broth of the wild plants.  If you have any cracked cell chlorella or phytoplankton you can get even more essential aminos to help rebuild the collagen in the digestive system by adding just a little to this recipe.  I hope you love it and make it your own.

Ingredients

  • 2 large avocados
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 T miso paste (optional) 1 T onion powder
  • 1 t prepared mustard

One comment

Ah the flax cracker. I love combining flavours to put in this one. Feel free to substitute and let me know what you come up with!

Pomegranate Rosemary Flax Crackers

Ingredients
  • Flax seeds, 1.5 C
  • Filtered water, 1.5 C
  • Red onion, 1/3 C diced
  • Pomegranate seeds, about 1/2 pomegranate (1/2 cup, frozen ok)
  • Rosemary fresh, 2 T
  • Himalayan salt, 1/2 t
Instructions

Presoak flax in water for 8 hrs

Break up flax seeds in the food processor as much as possible

Add other ingredients and pulse to combine

Taste for salt and adjust as needed

Spread onto Teflex or baking sheets and place in the dehydrator

Dehydrate for 6-8 hrs or until crisp (can dehydrate warmer for the first hour to speed up the dehydration for more food safety especially as the dampness of the crackers protects them from heat,

score the crackers after the first hour and return them to the dehydrator for the remaining time at 110

These can TOTALLY be baked in your oven if desired instead of dehydrating, at 350F/180C for 30 minutes
