RAW Flax/Chia Crackers

If you know all the benefits that chia and flax seeds have to offer I think you will really enjoy this recipe. It is supper easy and can be stored for weeks.

I soaked about 1 cup of flax seeds in about 2 cups of water for at least 2 hours. The longer the better I think. Right before spreading the mixture onto the dehydrator sheets I added 1 cup of chia seeds. I also added a Tbsp of turmeric and some salt and red pepper. You can add whatever spices you like best. Salt and pepper is pretty good too. After mixing everything well I spread it out onto the dehydrator sheets. Set your temperature to about 110 degrees and leave overnight, or until very dry.
Right after you spread the mixture you can score it so that it is easier to break after it is dried.

RAW Banana Sandwich

This is the best banana sandwich I have ever had, and I don't really like banana's that much!! The cinnamon in the bread ties the whole recipe together. They are so delicious.

Ingredients
1/2 cup ground flax seeds
1/2 cup of raisins or dates. I used dates
1/2 banana
1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp to 1 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt
1/2 banana
almond butter

Directions
Blend first seven ingredients together in a food processor until smooth. you may need to add more water. It should stay somewhat thick. Spread it out on a non-stick dehydrator sheet. Form into squares if you can. Dehydrate at 105 degrees for 8 hours. Flip them over if you can after about 6 hours. When done spread almond butter on bread and place a slice of banana on top. You can also use two slices of bread and make a real sandwich instead of bit side sandwiches like I made.
