Avocado and Sunflower-seed Dips (raw)


Back in the day when I was juicing a lot, I had a lot of leftover veggie pulp. The juice I would drink early in the morning on an empty stomach, wow it went down well, and a couple of hours later I would put real food in my body. The veggie liquid not only hydrated my body but also filled it with nutrients. My digestion was so bad in the early days of candida, but I found this method worked for "feeding" myself. Wow, it took time!

So these are veggie pulp crackers. I added some minced garlic and herb seasonings to the pulp and put them in my dehydrator. Really tasty!



An avocado dip with 2 avocados, lemon juice and a touch of zest, salt and pepper. 
Since I blended this instead of mashed it, I probably added a bit of zucchini to give it a bit of moisture for blending but not to dilute the dip itself. 
Dehydrated tomato flakes and walnuts for garnish.


Sunflower seed dip.
Sunflower seeds soaked in a little water for 3-4 hours, zucchini pieces to give it body and help with the blending, olive oil, salt and pepper. A touch of cumin and garlic compliments the Mediterranean flavors of the avocado dip.
