I have never, ever made crackers before, so this was pretty fun :) A friend of mine found some recipes for crackers & feta cheeze, but they were both baked. I wanted it raw! ;)
She sent me the links, & I used the basic ideas for these crackers & this feta & pate combined, & just made them into my own raw version. I honestly started out making the feta (but with sunflower seeds instead of almonds), & then remembered all of the veggies in my fridge screaming to be consumed. "Okay, okay, I heard you!" So then I used some basic ideas from the veggie pate.
Sooo yeah. I'm sure you're getting a pretty clear idea by now of how my mind works when I'm creating recipes. I start with an idea, & it evolves as I go along. By the way: I like garlic. A lot. If you don't love it, I recommend cutting down the amount I use in any recipe.
These crackers & veggie cheeze dip are sooooooooo yummy!! And wow, the smell in my kitchen as they dehydrated :) *siiiiiiiighhh* I can't remember the last time I ate crackers before today, but I'm definitely enjoying these!
From my kitchen, to yours <3

Any way to make the crackers without a dehydrator??
unfortunately, not if you want them to be raw...it can be done in the oven, though.
OR, if there is A LOT of sun out, & you have A LOT of patience, you may use the sunshine :)
