12. high protein low carb gluten-free "soup crackers"

Jul 2013

Last night's experiment - would be easy to alter all the ingredients based on what's in your pantry and garden, but here's what I did.

Step 1: Make soup with:

1 cup red lentils
1 can (15 oz?) fire roasted tomatoes, would use fresh if mine were ripe
1 cup leftover broth (water would be fine)
2 cups shredded summer squash
1 large handful random shit from the garden. I used kale, lovage (which is like celery on steroids), sage and lemon chives.

add more water if needed to make a thick soup. Season - but go light on salt, since it's going to be concentrated.

Step 2: eat the soup with dinner (add extra salt to bowls if needed, not to pot.)

Step 3: hit the leftovers with a stick blender, add enough gram (chick pea) flour to make a thick paste. If you don't care about carbs, you could use regular flour. Spread that in fruit leather trays in a dehydrator. If you want, sprinkle with kosher salt or nutritional yeast. Score when it starts to hold its shape.

Finished!
