Well, most RAW meals with nuts can last from 3-4 days...up to about a week...(like Pate's...) What I did was, when I got home, I put most of what I brought in the Freezer and just put it in the Dehydrator a few hours before I wanted to eat them. That seemed to work well. Some things I kept out, though... but the Icecream, Cheese, and CheeseCakes were re-frozen easily. The Pizza's didn't even stand a chance in the Frig!!!!! LOL!!!! The Burgers I had 2 days later and they were SOOOO GOOODD!!! The only thing I wish was that all of the Sauces and Guac were placed on the side so that I could warm it up separately, but I'm happy with my whole package from Grezzo!!!

Ever Since I got back from meeting Alissa, I could NOT get her Flax Crackers off of my mind!!!! So, I MADE THEM the way that SHE makes them...SUPER THIN!!!!
AND HERE IT IS FROM THE SIDE:
AND, ***NOW*** I know What Alissa means when she says that the "goo" will hold it together!!! It's SO much better this WAY!!!! Thanks Alissa!!!
I also could NOT get Alissa's Pizza and her Eggplant Bacon Sandwich out of my mind!!! So, I made her Pizza Bread for them both:
It turned out SOOOO MUCH BETTER this time!!!! Just talking with her and the tips Alissa gave me for them made a HUGE difference!!!!
I also could not get her GRANOLA out of my head!!!! So, I also made the Granola in Alissa's book!!!
I must say, this SCARED me at first!!!!! It looks NOTHING like the one at Grezzo!!! The ingredients are very different... But, when it was done dehydrating, it's actually REALLLY GOOD!!! I wish that it was a bit sweeter, so next time I will add more fruit to it. The Granola that Lea made at Grezzo is 100X's BETTER, mind you... But, the one in Alissa's book holds it's own well!!! (I also added Raisons to mine...)
Alissa...please consider shipping the Granola too!!! I'd buy a TON of it!!!! (SMILE)Last edited by ReneeH; 11-29-2009 at 07:43 PM.

Oh yeah baby! I love making my crackers thin...they are crunchier. I am so loving un-cooking right now. It's been over a year! Where I was renting I had all my "stuff" put away so the hardwood floors could be re-done. Then moving the HFS - way too busy, too tired to un-cook, then me moving. Now I'm loving this.
People laugh at me for taking pics of my Raw food goodnesses, but to me they are works of art.
Nature at it's finest!!!
Nee'? Keep posting those pics baby!!!

OOOHHHH, I forgot to mention what Alissa showed me about her Eggplant Bacon!!! Hers is SUPER THINNER than mine!!! And has 10X's the flavor!!! So, she said to use a Veggie Peeler instead of the Mandolin to peel the Eggplant!!!! She goes all around the Eggplant with the Peeler and it is marinated like that!!! I bought 2 of them and will have them dehydrated by the evening!!!!
Here's Alissa's Again:
JUST LOOKING AT IT, YOU CAN ***SEE*** THE FLAVOR IN IT!!! Believe me when I tell you, this is 'da BOMB!!!! :)

Hey, Renee, thanks for the tips! I think I need to make my crackers thinner! I'm going to try the eggplant bacon with a peeler, but not until I finish Alissa's book!
Great pics!

VFL: I've always used my mandoline. Makes it pretty thin, but the peeler may be thinner.
