Grain-Free Cracked Pepper, Cashew Crackers

Servings: 20–30
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 generous cups raw cashews
• 1 pastured egg
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

Ingredients:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a food processor, grind the cashews into a flour. Make sure not to over blend into cashew butter, but you want it as fine as possible. Add in the salt and pepper and pulse to combine.

In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg and oil together and stir in the flour mixture until combined.

Place the ball of dough in the center of a large piece of parchment paper with an additional piece of paper over top.

Roll out to desired thickness, about 1/8–1/4 inch. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut into desired size. You may want to sprinkle additional salt and pepper over top of crackers

Bake In preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until a bit brown. Store in an airtight container.

Radishes with Coconut Oil and Sage

Servings: 3–4
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 bunches of radishes (I used Easter egg radishes so they were Valentine’s colors.)
• 2–3 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1-2 teaspoons sage (I used dried.)
• sea salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Wash and remove the leaves and stems from the radishes. Cut in half or quarters depending on the size of the radishes.

Melt the oil over medium-high heat in a skillet and toss in the radishes. Let cook for about 6–7 minutes or until soft and browned, stirring occasionally

Sprinkle the sage, salt, and pepper.

Variations:

Diced onions and/or garlic would also be good in this recipe.
