raw spicy lime tortilla chips!


These are so yummy and can be made so many ways! I'll be posting other varieties in the future :-)

So, here is the recipe for today's spicy lime tortilla chips:

3 cups fresh kernel corn (about 4 ears, cut from ear)
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1-2 jalapenos (I use 2 - cut into thirds)
2 small limes (peel limes and cut into quarters)
sea salt as desired


Combine all ingredients in a blender or Vita-Mix until blended well.

Spread out on Teflex lined dehydrator sheets - to your desired thickness... thinner for chips, bit thicker for round, softer tortillas. Spread/shape into rounds or spread all out and score for chips.

Dehydrate until desired crispness, for rounds it's best to flip them about 2/3 way through. It's that easy ;-)

raw happiness - salsa!!

Wow, I just finished eating the best salsa slaw I've ever eaten! okay, so it's the best "coleslaw" I've ever eaten. It's so simple too - shredded red cabbage, shredded carrot, and raw happiness salsa.

Yes, I really did make salsa with raw happiness trail mix and it's fantastic. I'll let you know which prize we win in the salsa contest this Sunday :-)



To make this awesome salsa, soak 2 packages Peaceful Mix and 1 package Abundant Trails Mix up to 2 hours. Then in your food processor (to your desired chunkiness), depending on the size, you may have to mix in batches.... roma tomatoes, serrano peppers, jalepeno peppers, cilantro, garlic, and the soaked raw happiness mixes. Then just squeeze fresh lime juice and add sea salt to taste or as desired. That's it!  If it's too thick, you can take about 1/4 of the salsa and put in the blender to liquefy, then add it back to the salsa.

raw happiness veggie dip


This is a great recipe for carrots, celery, peppers, cucumbers, even jicama! I love that it's so simple too, just soak your favorite raw happiness in water overnight, then blend, adding water or juice (using fresh carrot or celery juice is fantastic) until it's thick and creamy.

Sweeten the dip with a fruit juice or a little agave nectar for an awesome fruit dip.

RAW happiness porridge

This is so delicious raw, but if you must, you can warm this yummy porridge.

Before bed, I soak a bag of raw happiness mix - the pictured porridge uses Abundant Trails Mix. When I wake up, I soak a bowl of oats (or use your favorite grain cereal). After finishing my morning rituals, I just throw everything in the blender and add water to get a nice creamy consistency.

Pour into serving bowls, drizzle agave nectar and sprinkle cinnamon on top as desired.

If you prefer traditional cooked oatmeal or cream of wheat, throw in a handful of your favorite raw happiness trail mix for a fun treat!
