Enjoy!<\/p>\n
So… continuing on our exploration of all things raw. Liking it so far, though it can be a little challenging planning … and you can’t easily decide at 5 p.m. What you’re going to have for (raw) dinner – unless it’s just a salad – which, although I LOVE salad… gets old. Fast. <\/p>\n
So – last night I made burgers. Well, I made them yesterday morning – but we ate them last night after they spent most of the day in the dehydrator. <\/p>\n
Here’s what’s in ’em:
\n\u2154 cup sunflower seeds
\n\u2154 cup walnuts or pecans
\n1\/4 cup ground flax seeds
\n3\/4 cup finely chopped veggies (combination of celery, onion, fresh parsley, and\/or red \/ green pepper – some of each is best, but ratio doesn’t matter)
\n2 tablespoons chia seeds
\n1 tablespoon water
\n2 teaspoons lemon juice
\n1 garlic clove
\nSea salt
\n1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional) <\/p>\n
How to make them?
\nPut the sunflower seeds and nuts and flax seeds in your food processor – fitted with the “S” blade. Don’t use Vitamix for this one… need the surface area. <\/p>\n
Grind until it’s basically a meal – not TOO crazy fine – but meal like. <\/p>\n
Place the ground nuts in a bowl… and add all the other ingredients. Stir throughougly to combine. It should begin to have the consistency of a burger (veggie, albeit) at this point. If a little wet – you can add ground flax seed. If a little dry, just a tiny bit of water. <\/p>\n
Form the burgers and put on parchment paper in your dehydrator at 110 degrees Fahrenheit. They should not be more than \u00bd to \u00be inch thick. But not too thin, either. <\/p>\n
After 1 \u00bd to 2 hours, see if they’re starting to firm up (they should be). If you think they can stand being on their own – put them on the dehydrator screen (remove the parchment paper). <\/p>\n
Let them continue to dehydrate at 110-115 degrees for another 5-6 hours. You can flip them if you want, but really… why? It’s not like they’re going to have grill marks. Lol. <\/p>\n
Serve with mustard and homemade organic raw ketchup <\/a>, other veggies, salad, maybe dehydrated sprouted bread (that’s what I did- was awesome). Oh – and Pickles! Little bread & butter pickle chips are great on this. OH – and you can top with raw vegan nacho cheese sauce <\/a>. <\/p>\n Enjoy!<\/p>\n
