Mexican Sesame Dip Heavenly Popcorn Topping 2 Tbs. flax seed oil Blend ingredients in cup and pour over popcorn as you would melted butter. I serve this to my children without their knowing it was not butter. They actually commented on how especially delicious the popcorn seemed to be. In this case, what they didnt know wont hurt them! Do not heat the oil for it is extremely sensitive to heat. Always make fresh and serve immediately. Flax Seed Butter 2 Tbs. flax seeds Grind flax seeds to a fine powder in coffee grinder. Blend all ingredients together until smooth. Add salt to taste. If you are putting the butter on potatoes or cooked vegetables, you can also add onion powder, garlic powder, Vegit or any seasoning of your choice. Flax butter needs to be eaten fresh because of the delicate essential fatty acids in the flax seeds. The good tasting yeast gives this spread a distinct buttery taste. The flax seeds produce a slightly nutty flavor. We think it tastes better than butter. Almond Butter Almond butter can be made fresh daily in small batches or kept in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Add desired amounts of almonds and grind in your coffee grinder. A second batch ground for 2-3 seconds and added to the finely powdered almonds makes a great chunky almond butter. Add honey and mix well with water for desired constancy. Mix in a pinch of salt and cinnamon. Honey can be replaced with cold pressed peanut oil, flax oil or pumpkin oil for a richer butter. This basic recipe can be used for making any nut butters. Experiment to find what is you and your familys favorite nutty flavor. A Champion juicer makes an excellent almond butter. Almond Spice Spread 30 almonds Mix all ingredients in two batches in your coffee grinder. Thinly slice a raw sweet potato. Spread soft mixture on top of sweet potato slices and sprinkle with Good Tasting Yeast or top with raisins and sesame seeds. A great junk-food replacer for those late night munches. Also makes a great decorative entree for guests. Nut's Milk Shake 1/2 cup cashews Add a half cup of water to raw cashews and blend until smooth. Add remainder of water and continue blending. Add honey, vanilla and continue blending. Cashews can be replaced by any nut. A tougher nut like almond may have to be strained after blending. Do not drink too fast or drink more than two glasses as it may cause stomach pains. Caution: avoid nut milk during, and breaking a fast. Frozen NutSicle
1 cup water Add all dry ingredients and a half cup of water. Blend at high speed for 5 minutes. Add rest of water and banana. Blend one more minute. Pour into Popsicle mold and freeze. These nutsicles are the ultimate in kid control. The kids will clean their room, vacuum the entire house and do all their homework just for one of these treats. This can also be used as a chilled pudding. Slice banana on top and freeze one hour. Stand guard in front of freezer until ready. Tall Tale Trail Mix My grandpa used to make a trail mix that would allow him to walk through the mountains without sleep for two weeks solid. His hair grew back, and it gave him the strength of ten men. Bears could smell his trail mix half a mile away. Once, he even had to wrestle a bear almost twice his size. Further into the mountains, a hungry sansquatch came out of the woods trying to steal his famous mix. They ended up becoming friends and sitting down for supper and exchanging tales to the wee hours of the morning. Trail mixes have a famous tradition amongst backpackers, cyclists, campers and canoeists. The reputation for sustained energy is unrivaled. A couple of handfuls are filling, quick and nutritious. Trail mixes are concentrated foods that make a full meal. They are convenient and can be eaten on the move. The great part about trail mixes is that raw nuts digest better when they are chewed together with dried fruits. Instead of buying someone elses trail mix, create you own, personalized to your taste buds. Here are some suggestions of ingredients you can include in your trail mix. peanuts shredded coconut chopped dates chopped figs raisins currants dried apricots dried banana chips cashews almonds sesame seeds sunflower seeds filberts brazil nuts pumpkin seeds whole oats pistachio nuts dried apple walnuts powdered seaweed
