Multiple O Onion Bread With Leeks and Scallions
Just taste this dehydrated onion bread and it will be obvious to you why it’s rated with multiple O’s! We offered this at our cafe and actually had customers order it in bulk so they’d have their own stash on hand! Kids love it too so you’ve got all areas covered. In our house, where there might be five kids at any given time, it’s hard to keep it stocked! It’s deliciously addictive and well worth setting aside a dehydrator day for, although it is actually very quick to prepare. The leeks and scallions in the bread make it very pretty as well.! At first you will think that there…
Mushrooms Stuffed With Pistachio Basil Pesto
This is my all-time favorite side dish or raw snack. If you use larger mushrooms (and larger tomatoes for the topping), this could be an amazing main dish to serve with a side salad. Just plan on dehydrating a little longer. The recipe is simple but potent and you will be rewarded ten-fold with amazing flavor that will have you wondering if this is really raw food at all! I have made this dish for office parties and no one can believe it’s not cooked… I literally serve slightly warmed straight from the dehydrator and people are salivating! The smell becomes so intoxicating as it dehydrates that it drives me…
Teriyaki Vegetables, Stirred Not Fried
All the julienne-ing and thin slicing makes this vegetable teriyaki the perfect recipe for community involvement. In my case, the whole family joined in with their respective cutting boards and we made a real party of it. On your own its still easy (and significantly more meditative) but you shave off a considerable amount of prep time by having a band of willing minions who are dying to eat and love to use knives. The dehydrator transforms this dish into a meal worthy of the best Asian restaurant. It’s like a wonderful magic trick; the vegetables stay crisp and fresh tasting but the whole meal seems deceptively cooked and perfect…
Easy Raw Carrot Ginger Soup
We kind of take the carrot for granted but it is really the most wonderful vegetable: it can reward you with beautiful skin, better vision and oral health, improved digestion and heightened cardiovascular function. Plus it’s the ultimate immune booster! And I’ve got to admit that carrots are definitely tastier in their raw state. I have a very distinct memory of my mom serving carrots as a consistent side-dish in my youth and they were always soft enough to mush and relatively tasteless and somehow always unappealing. Once upon a time carrots were definitely one of the ‘red-headed-stepchildren of the vegetable world, coming into a close tie with peas and…
Vanilla Scented Parsnip and Apple Soup
The sensual vanilla scent of this parsnip and apple laden soup gives an added boost to this lovely and elegant concoction through the olfactory experience alone! There’s just something about vanilla…It is not necessary to strain the soup but this step gives it an added level of sophistication. Sometimes- when it’s just ‘dinner for one’ you don’t need that but it’s nice to know you have the option. Myself, I have no problem with chunks; keeps it earthy and I like earthy! I also like it a little warmed. Seems like parsnips have their real moment in cooler weather and it just makes sense to heat things up a little…
