Here's the recipe:
8 Salted Sun Dried Tomatoes
2 Tomatoes
1 T Minced Garlic
2 T Flax Seeds, Ground
1 T Hemp Oil
1/2 tea Original GoL's Raw Protein
Here's a pic of when I flattened them. You can see that the more moist insides smooshed thru and you can see two different colors. I actually like the two-tone color combo going on here but they weren't done yet. So I put them back in for about another 4 hours or so. Of course I flipped them at least once right around that time too.
Tah-Dah! Here they are! I have a bowl of them to use throughout the week! I ended up putting some on my Egg Trick Muffin that you saw yesterday. I will be using them on salads, too!
If I get brave enough I might try and do another raw pizza which was another kitchen fail last week. I didn't blog about that fee-ask-co but I instagrammed it!
I'm really trying to think outside the box with my dehydrator creations and I think I accomplished that with this one!

I love this idea - it's nice to see a meat sub that doesn't rely on a lot of highly processed foods like TVP & Gluten powder : )
ReplyDeleteIt's funny I can't even remember the last time I used TVP...
DeleteThanks for the feedback :) I hope to do some more alternatives like this soon!
Interesting, did they have the same texture as pepperoni or are they hard like a cracker?
ReplyDeleteOh!!! I think you would enjoy these! Since I didn't fully dry them to the cracker or chip point - they were fairly flimsy! They were somewhat comparable to a pepperoni texture because of the sundried tomatoes and a little fiber-like because of the flax holding them together. The salted sundried tomatoes contributed to the salt you would taste in pepperoni - I guess, too! I am VERY pleased with this first attempt! I might try and use unsalted sundried tomatoes next time and use some Coconut Aminos instead...just to see the difference.
DeleteSuch a fun and interesting idea, thanks! I would try these in salads for a little flavor pop.
ReplyDeleteI think they would work well in Salads and in wraps and subs, too! I added about 4 of them to my Egg Trick Muffin in the other photo and post but it's hard to see them.
DeleteWhat a positively delicious treat. Yum! I would serve them at parties. Better then potato chips. They would surely be a hit! Thank you so much for sharing this nutritious raw vegan pepperoni recipe at the Plant-Based Potluck Party Blog Hop! I sincerely appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try them again with unsalted sundried tomatoes and use coconut aminos for a more gentle salt flavor. I've been liking them on my egg trick muffins! YUM!
DeleteOh fun! I haven't particularly missed pepperoni since going vegan, but this would be really fun to throw on a pizza =)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean...I haven't either. Just thought I would try it for fun!
DeleteAwesome awesome idea! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I was pretty excited about this attempt :)
