Potato Chips
Super Easy and much more healthy potato chips.
This is what I did:
Mince Garlic put in Olive Oil
Pour that on bottom of pan
Slice your potato as evenly as possible
Set the oven somewhere between 350-400
Bake 10 min
Flip potato's
Bake 10 min
Take baking sheet out and Season
I used No Salt Organic Seasoning & Fresh Rosemary
(my husband likes to add salt to his)
Put back in the oven and continue checking until they are done to your preference
They can be a little soft or really crunchy it's up to you!!
They are good with Ketchup OR Seasoned sour cream
"Juice Me"
This smoothie consisted of: Juiced Beets & Carrots, Celery, Banana and Blueberries. Not the most amazing tasting in the world, but really good for you and very filling.
(Sorry the vita-mixer picture was from a previous smoothie, not the same stuff as the Beet smoothie)
One whole juiced pineapple, coconut milk, 2 bananas. Pretty good, it was a little frothy but once that settled down it was good =)
Pulp Cookies
I have been on a juice fast for 5 days now and I have a ton of left over pulp. I have a Waring Pro juicer which I thought was going to be a good one, but it leaves me with a TON of pulp after. I don't like that, but I have found some creative recipes to use that valuable fiber. Here is one that I just tried out today:
Ingredients:
3 C. organic Carrot Pulp
3 C. organic Quick Oats/Oat Flour Mix (I just throw the Oatmeal in the Vitamix) (I have also used part Quinoa flour-- also whirred up in my Vitamix)
1 T. Arrowroot Powder
2 tsp. Celtic Sea Salt
1 1/2 C. organic Cane Sugar (or similar sweetener)
2 tsp. Baking Soda
2 T. Cinnamon
1 C. organic Thompson Raisins
3 C. Mashed Banana AND oil to top up (such as Olive Oil)
6 T. Flaxseed Egg-Replacer (*See recipe below)
Drops of Young Living Thieves and Ginger Essential Oils (optional)
1/2 Bag fresh Cranberries
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. I use a silicone mat on a cookie sheet (no greasing of pan required) but grease up a pan otherwise. Make up Flaxseed Egg Replacer if you haven't done so already:
2. Use a wooden spoon to combine the Carrot Pulp, Oats/Oat Flour Mix, Arrowroot powder, Sugar, Celtic Sea Salt, Baking Soda and Cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.
3. Add in Thompson Raisins and stir until consistent texture
4. Mash about 5 ripe bananas and add in oil until the combo makes 3 Cups (or whirr the bananas in the Vitamix and then add in oil)
5. Make a hole in the dry ingredients and add in the banana-oil and flaxseed egg replacer. Add in other spices (including a couple of drops of essential oils, if using). Stir.
6. Add in fresh cranberries.
7. Mound in cookie shapes on the pan. Bake for about 10-20 minutes Take out just before they look ready. Cool on racks.
I am so excited to learn about the flaxseed egg replacement! It works perfect =)

Directions:
- Grind flaxseed to a fine powder in an electric coffee grinder.

- Chill for 1 hour to set up. It can be used now, but it has a more egg-like consistency if allowed to chill.
- Keep refrigerated up to 3 days
2. Use a wooden spoon to combine the Carrot Pulp, Oats/Oat Flour Mix, Arrowroot powder, Sugar, Celtic Sea Salt, Baking Soda and Cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.
3. Add in Thompson Raisins and stir until consistent texture
4. Mash about 5 ripe bananas and add in oil until the combo makes 3 Cups (or whirr the bananas in the Vitamix and then add in oil)

This site is full of really amazing recipes that I am excited to try, I just stumbled on this site today. Plus it's great to see that the recipes have Young Living Essential Oils in them, I love this because I am a big believer in using the oils as often as possible.
I made a few slight modifications you can always try too. I used coconut oil instead of olive oil (only because we didn't have any) Then I realized most of my bananas were too green to even pull open! So I grabbed a buncha leftovers in the fridge to make that "3 cups of mashed banana" I ended up with 2 bananas, about a cup of leftover pumpkin I had previously purred for a soup, and less than a cup of leftover pineapple from my juicing, and lastly...applesauce. Also I only put in 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup agave.
BE CREATIVE with your baking, you never know what you might come up with!
Carrot & Orange Sorbet
Fresh Carrot & Orange Juice, 2 Bananas, and a lot of ice....will make you a very healthy bowl of yummy sorbet.
Apple Cranberry Tarts
Chop up your organic apples & get some fresh or frozen organic cranberries
Throw them all in a pot with a desired amount of cinnamon & brown sugar.
Add either butter or coconut oil to the mixture, cook until apples begin to soften a bit.
Lay out the Pie Crust cut them in circles and fill them with your apples & cranberries
Close up the pies and sprinkle some cinnamon on the top!
Cook until pie crusts are finished and there you go! Homemade tarts, so easy.
You can even put them in the freezer and pull them out for a treat when ever you want!

Juice Fast
After watching a recent documentary (Fat Sick & Nearly Dead) about Juicing David & I decided to give it a try. The first day was hard and we both didn't feel very good, now were on day 4 and were feeling a lot better! Our fridge is full of nothing but fruits & veggies and at each meal we never know what color our smoothies will turn out!
