Natural Raw Snackies!!! : Kale Chips!

so, i've tried to make kale chips before and they didn't turn out quite as expected, so i tried again last night.




i forgot to take pics of the seasoning i made, but i took kale, broke it up into a bowl, and drizzled olive oil on it. then i seasoned the kale with sea salt, black peppercorn, garlic powder, and some "jesse spice" which is a special blend of spices you'll have to ask Jesse about =)

i massaged the kale to make sure it was all coated, then loaded my dehydrator trays and allowed to dehydrate overnight...



this morning...



yummy healthy green snack, ready to grab n go!!

Natural Raw Snackies!!! : gRAWnola bars

so i know its been a long time, and ive tried a TON of new things...just havent taken any pics of my creations as of late, but i decided to start back last night, so here are some awesome raw snackies to add to the collection!!




i made some granola the other day (oats, cranberries, blueberries, pecans, walnuts, cinnamon...)but it didnt get quite as crunchy as i wanted it to. i dehydrated it for almost 2 days, but it seemed like a random mix of oats and berries so i took that and made bars out of it!!

to make the bars i needed to add moisture to the dry mix, so i made a paste out of apple, dates, lemon juice, water, cinnamon and honey, and processed it together.



(i know how it looks.... bear with me lol...)



next, i took my dry granola that i had previously dehydrated....



and added it to the date apple paste



mixed 'em up...



made gRAWnola bars and dehydrated overnight...



woke up this morning and packed a great "fast food" natural yummy healthy filling snack!!!
