Day 25 - Corn Salsa Pizzettes

Goodness gracious.  What a morning.  Late, late, late.  Confession - I tend to get addicted to certain 'specialty shows' - Lost, The Tudors, Rome, etc.  The latest - Fringe.  Am of course seasons behind, so we get the shows through Netflix, but that means we can watch 4 episodes, commercial-free, into the wee hours of the morning.  Last night - fell asleep during the show.  To top it off, got adventurous with the new dehydrator - made raw goddess kale chips last night. Of course this morning on top of being late, had to get all the chips into air tight packages with a couple not quite done the dehydration process.  So, I was a bit of a crazy woman running around this morning and of course, the kids were late for school.  The good part about this morning - the kids stole a kale chip before I could pack some in their lunch - the LOVED it!  Yeah!  Kids loving kale.  From my nutrition persona - I couldn't be more delighted!

Today's Lunch
- Corn Salsa Pizzettes
- Baby Cukes
- Goddess Kale Chips
- Apple Chips
- Water (as always, I just don't always put it in the blog).

Here are the before and after dehydrator kale chips:

Raw Goddess Kale Chips - All Done!
Note - the kale chips are raw as they were dehydrated at 105 degrees (F).  Anything below 118 degrees is considered raw cooking.  Raw foodies, as they are called, believe that if you cook food higher than 118, that you kill off all the good nutrients and enzymes.  Dehydrators are a raw foodie's best friend!  (Along with raw cacao, but we'll save that for another conversation.)


Corn Salsa Pizzettes
Full disclosure here.  My husband put the corn salsa on the pita bread a couple of nights ago for us to snack on - we never did.  So, they were sitting in the fridge and with my lack of time this morning, I just sprinkled some cheese on top and broiled for a couple of minutes.
