I can’t hear you… | No, really, I can’t.

So. Happy Friday, lovelies! Or lovely, since it appears that only ThaiHoa is reading this. LOVE YOU!!

Okay. Moving on.

I got the brilliant idea yesterday to make some raw almond butter. Yup. I’m a full-on domesticated-type goddess-person…at least I like to think so. Apparently I’m NOT.

Not at all. My almond butter is more like almond paste. In all fairness, my little 8-cup food processor probably doesn’t have a motor powerful enough to justify using it to make nut butters…at least that’s what I discovered as smoke started to come out of its base and a horrific screeching noise came from the actual blade. Yeah. Not my proudest moment. So.

Now I have almond paste. It will serve it’s purpose for this morning’s breakfast sushi. It was surprisingly yummy. I dare you to try it!

I did have a modicum of success in the kitchen yesterday, even though my almond butter was a #EPICFAIL.

I made more kale chips (I can’t keep them in the cupboard!!), and make some spicy zucchini chips…wait. What? You’d like the recipe? Sure thing!

Raw Spicy Zucchini Chips

Juice from 2 1/2 lemons
3 tbsp cold pressed olive oil
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
1/2 tsp chipotle powder
dash oregano
3-5 zucchini (depending on size. I used 5 small)

Start by mixing everything but the zucchini in a large bowl. slice your zucchini into thin disks using a mandolin or a sharp knife. Add zucchini to your sauce and stir to coat. Place the chips into the dehydrator. Allow to dehydrate for 24 hours at 105-110 degrees. Enjoy!!

Okay…moving on. It’s good, y’all. You should try it. If you have been craving potato chips, these are WAY better. Just sayin’….

AND, I made raw almond milk. SO yummy! Now to make some chia pudding….
