Food

What foods have I processed recently, and how? D cut many pears, from the food bank, into twelfths, used one orange to squeeze juice over them in the bowl, then dried them in the food dehydrator. Dried pear strips to carry on the road! Bananas went in food dryer also, subjected to the same orange juice treatment. Sometimes bananas go in with a final dusting of powdered cinnamon. Or chocolate with hot pepper in it.

We mixed up the following recipe for granola:
6 cups rolled oats (could be any rolled grains) (toasted in the oven on 350 degrees F until lightly browned)
3 cups seeds or nuts (sunflower seeds, wheat germ, almonds, cashews) (also toasted separately, watch the wheat germ, it BURNS easily)
1 cup dried fruit
2 teaspoons powdered cinnamon
All gets mixed in a gallon jar, and eaten with milk, nut milk, coconut milk, or yogurt over it.
