Put your leftover juicing pulp to use! Mine usually has beet, carrot, zucchini, cucumber, some ginger and maybe apple.

Servings: yields 4 dozen
Preparation Time: 20 minutes

1. Process ingredients in food processor. You will need to do this in batches, add enough water to make to make a workable dough that holds it’s shape but gets nicely chopped up. Bigger pieces of cucumber skin may need to be picked out.

2. Adjust herbs and spices to taste, remember these shrink so the flavor will be concentrated.

3. Using fruit leather sheets or parchment paper, use your hands to spread it out to 1/4″ or less thickness. Score into crackers.

4. Dehydrate at 135 ºF in the dehydrator. Turn crackers over when firm and dry on top. They are done when dry right through and crisp.

5. Break apart and store in an airtight container.

These are great as is, with butter, cheese, nut butter or whatever!

Coconut Butter Focaccia

Servings: 6-8
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees ºF.

Place the warmed coconut butter into your blender along with the eggs, olive oil, salt, and garlic. Blend until the mixture is fairly smooth–it will be thick. The coconut butter solidifies if it comes into contact with cold, so make sure your eggs are at room temperature.

Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit a cookie sheet. Place the parchment on the cookie sheet and then lightly butter or oil the parchment paper. Spread the batter into a rectangle that is about 10 by 12 inches, of a fairly even thickness. Sprinkle the rosemary and other toppings over the batter.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges of the focaccia are lightly browned. Remove and cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares to serve.

Servings: 24
Preparation Time: 30 minutes

Preheat oven to 325 degrees ºF. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Roll into golf-ball sized cookies, and flatten slightly with your palm. The cookies shouldn’t spread too much, so you can place them about an inch apart.

Best when served chilled.

*You can grind your own almond flour by placing whole almonds in a blender/food processor and blending until you get a fine meal.
