Have some dehydrating now. Here's a recipe:

ONION RINGS

1 large sweet or spanish onion cut into rings

1st coating
4 tbs. olive oil
2 tbs. water
Sea salt to taste

2nd coating:
1 cup ground golden flax seeds
1/2 cup ground unsoaked almonds
1-2 tsp. paprika
Sea salt and pepper to season

How to: Take each onion ring, dip it into the 2nd coating, then into the 1st coating and then back into the 2nd coating. Your goal is to get as much of the 2nd coating as possible. Once you have achieved that, gently take the the coated onion rings and put them on dehydrator trays (without teflex sheets) and dehydrate the rings for about 10-14 hrs at 105 degrees F. or until crispy. Serve them with a tangy dipping sauce.

Tangy Dipping Sauce

1 cup macadamia nuts (soaked for 2-4 hrs)
1/2 cup pine nuts
1-2 tbs. lemon juice
2 tbs. soaked sun dried tomatoes
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
Sea salt to taste

Add everything in heavy duty food processor or a high speed blender and process or blend till smooth and creamy. Add a little water if needed. Scoop out the mixture into a bowl and garnish it with chopped cilantro and diced red bell pepper. Serve aside warm onion rings.

I made these and I really liked them. Didn't make the dip tho', didn't have macadamia nuts.

I'm so awful at reading recipes, I didn't realize I was supposed to dip twice. They came out fine though. I chomped right through them!

When I first saw this recipe on RawGuru.com, I tried it but used zucchini chips instead and they were good too! I would like to play around with different seasonings, though and next time, try it with onions to make the onion rings. I was told he also uses this same mixture with avocado to make avo-fries so I figure the possibilities are ENDLESS! Anything you want a kind of breaded-fried taste with (mushrooms, for example) would work great with this coating!

Rawkinlocs,

Never thought of that, I'll try other veggies. Also, there is a raw food potlock in Redford once a month, first Thursday of each month. It's about an hour for me to drive (I'm just north of Flint) but I would go if I kinda "knew" somoeone else that was going. It is a meetup, you can find it on the meetup site.

Would you go?
