4. Scoop 1/3 cup of mixture and place on teflex lined dehydrator sheets. Shape into patties that are about 1/4 inch thick. Dehydrate at 115 degrees for approximately 1 hour, then remove the burgers from teflex lined sheet, flip and place on unlined dehydrator trays. Dehydrate for another 3 hours. Serve on lettuce leaves garnished with sprouts, sliced avocados, and tomatoes.

*Please note, Poultry Seasoning is a Vegan seasoning. It is sage, thyme, onion, marjoram, black pepper celery seed and cayenne. You can find it in the spice aisle of your favorite health food store. The brand I am using is Simply Organic.

This morning it was bitterly cold! I had a really hard time getting out of bed and I have to say, it wasn't easy. During the winter months it is so hard to stick with the schedule that you have in the warmer months. I can remember during the Spring and Summer months that I would get up a hour before I had to wake to go for a nice neighborhood walk. I couldn't imagine doing that now. I keep telling myself though....three more months...three more months...I am NOT a lover of cold weather. I am a spring/summer girl. Always will be.

What I do love though is the colder weather foods! I love to wake up and know that a bowl of hot oats or a nice warm omelet. When the alarm went off this morning, I didn't want to get out of bed. In fact, I laid there for a few minutes and actually had to get myself a little pep talk to get me going. This was in mind.

1/2 cup of organic oats, unsweetened almond milk, stevia pack and ALMOND (aka freedom butter). I got a wonderful package in the mail from the Living Tree Community! Raw organic almond butter, Tahini and mango, coconut persimmon butter was included!

Our newest Living Tree creation! We begin with organic Brazil Nuts wildcrafted in Amazonia. We surrounded them with a penumbra of Mission Fig grown by California family farmers in the great central valley. We then add 100% raw cacao, carob, vanilla, mesquite, lucuma, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, cacao butter and alive honey. We have also added maca for energy. Most raw chocolates out there use sugar in one form or another. I’m glad to say that instead of sugar we use honey. Alive honey has powerful antibacterial properties and is even effective against antibiotic resistant bacteria. It is a complex substance containing over 800 compounds, little understood by conventional science.

Our almond chocolate truffles will fill your kitchen with the fragrance of aliveness.

The pecan was the food of Native Americans for millenia. One of the most nutritious of nuts. Pecans are loaded with heart-healthy unsaturated fats and recently published studies show that pecan consumption can help lower cholesterol.

Aromatic and exotic! Will fill your kitchen with the fragrance of aliveness. We are delighted your response.

This is the fig you've been awaiting! Noted for its delicious, nut-like flavor. It is the smyrna fig from Turkey; long ago crowned best-tasting fig of all. It was brought to California in the 19th century, its name was changed to Calimyrna- a combination of California and Smyrna. Brighten your drear winter days with these magnificent fruits grown by family farmers.

They are dried in an evaporative cooling system and the pulp temperature never exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit. Moist and Chewy. Very sweet.

Organic and Kosher certified.
