Indian Flat Bread
Yesterday, I made Indian Flat Bread from Gabriel Cousen's Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine Cookbook.
I highly recommend this cookbook if you are even thinking of going raw. Not only does it have great recipes that make you feel fantastic when you eat them, but Reb Cousens (who is an MD!) has some opinions about the causes of diseases like autism and cancer. I can't confirm or deny the validity of his hypothesis. It is very interesting reading if you are at all interested in or involved with alternative health.
The first part of the recipe involves running a carrot and a cauliflower head thru a champion juicer with the solid plate attached. I don't have one of those so I just used my Juceman juicer, and ran them thru, and reunited the juice and the pulp after the fact. The recipe also calls for soaked sunflower seeds and golden flax seeds. Next time I might grind the flax seeds (and maybe the sunflower as well) to see if it gives it a better texture.
So, to this goo you add some turmeric, cinnamon and celtic sea salt. Smush it out as flat as you can and scoop pieces onto your dehydrator. Let it dry as long as you'd like. I like it not quite crunchy.
This bread is a great staple. I like to eat it with avocado and greens on top. You can also make a cashew cheeze and spread that on top with some sprouts. YUM! I recently took some of this on a trip and it made meals for days.
Something I'd like to try with this recipe- adding cumin to the spices... It wouldn't be quite as versatile in the taste, but I bet it would be fantastic!
