Currently the house smells YUMMY. We have Onion Bread in the dehydrator. The recipe is adapted from the one found on Gone Raw

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Dehydrating: 24 hours

3 large yellow onions
1 cup unsoaked flax seeds (golden, brown or a combo)
1 cup unsoaked raw sunflower seeds
1/4 cup Nama Shoyu
1/4 cup filtered water
1/4 cup first cold pressed olive oil


1. Peel and half the onions. Using the slicing disc of your food processor slice onions.
2. Place onions in large bowl
3. Using the S blade of the food processor grind the flax & sunflower seeds. Grind to desired coarseness. (We left ours half ground and half whole to add to the texture)
4. Mix onions, flax & sunflower seed mixture and rest of ingredients until thoroughly combined.
5. Spread mix thinly over a Teflex sheet and repeat until all of mixture is used.
6. Dehydrate at 105°F for 8 hours.
7. Flip and cut into 9 equal pieces for bread size pieces or smaller for cracker size pieces.
8. Return to dehydrator for 16 hours.

*Tip - If you don't have a teflex sheet for every tray in your dehydrator don't worry. I use saran wrap. Works like a charm.

I finally made raw granola (based on kandace recipe on gone raw ) two days ago and Akom really likes it. Here is the recipe:

Sprouting: 1 day
Soaking: 1 hour
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Dehydrating: 16 hours

1 cup oat groats (these must be sprouted which turns into about 1 3/4 cups)
1 cup medjool dates (soaked for at least 1 hour in 1 cup water)
1 diced apple
1/4 cup dried coconut flakes
1/4 cup unsoaked sunflower seeds
1/2 cup unsoaked almonds
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. vanilla powder (use more if you are using extract)

Note: soaking the sunflower seeds and almonds do make them easier to digest

1) Blend dates, soak water, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and vanilla powder
2) Mix date mixture with all other ingredients
3) Spread on teflex sheet
4) Dehydrate at 115 degrees for 16 hours (or desired crispiness)
5) Enjoy!

Akom has been snacking on this since I made it. Today he had it as a meal with unsweetened kefir. I on the other hand am very used to store bought granola - so really crunchy. I think because of the apples it doesn't become crunchy like that, so I have not had this as cereal.

I found that raw oat groats are hard to find. I bought them from Sprout People. A little expensive but I think the quality is worth it.
