These crackers are delicious with cheese or dips.

 

100 g Quinoa seeds (white, black, red or a mix)

50 g Chia seeds (white or black)

70 g Water

10 g Sesame seeds

Salt, to taste

 

Preheat oven to 400°F

 

1.       Place the quinoa and the chia seeds into the TM bowl and grind for 30 sec / speed 9

2.       Add 70 g water and the sesame seeds and mix for 6 sec / speed 6 to make a stiff dough

3.       Roll small balls of the dough between non-stick paper or a folded-over silicon mat to create circles 1mm to 2mm thick.  Place on a tray lined with baking paper and bake for 5 minutes, or until just golden.  When cool, store in an airtight container.

 

Variation : Make mini taco shells by slowly bending just cooked-warm crackers over a chopstick or fat pencil, then drape them over the TM rim to cool.  Served the tacos with finely diced sashimi tuna, tossed with diced avocado, shoyu and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
