If you follow my blog you know that I took a 30 day juice challenge (to juice 30-40 ounces per day for 30 days straight) back in February and haven’t looked back. I felt such a difference in my energy, digestion & overall health I decided it is a lifestyle for me. So as you can imagine I have a TON of pulp daily. I decided to buy a dehydrator and make my own pulp crackers. Now you know if you don’t eat any grains that eating a cracker that DOES NOT hurt your gut is amazing! I take the pulp, add a few spices & some water, make into patties & dehydrate for 9 hours. YUM YUM YUM! I use them to dip in all three of my meals. There is a ton of fiber and they are just crunchy, salty goodness!
Here is my new toy: Breville Juicer 800JEXL
Today I juiced: 1 head romaine lettuce, 8 carrots, 1 granny smith apple, 1/4 head green cabbage & 1 orange (orange for Ben!)
I store the juice in these mason jars in the fridge. I drink one right away in the morning, one mid morning or post workout & one in the afternoon.
My PULP!
Add 1/2 cup water (or so), organic spices: garlic powder, onion powder, bragg’s flakes, parsley, salt & basil. (you can add whatever you want)
Flatten into patties & dehydrate for 9 hours.
My Excalibur 5 tray dehydrator. LOVE LOVE LOVE!
Amy’s Pulp Crackers!!! I store them in a ziplock bag.
I also will throw onto my dehydrator a banana or two that are turning, a sliced apple, kiwi or whatever fruit I desire. I usually add cinnamon to my fruit. Sooo yummy & ZERO preservatives!
