Spicy Corn Chips

In the winter, to make my raw food recipes, I do a lot more dehydrating than I do in the summer. It seems that I have my Excalibur dehydrator going all the time! It is serving dual purposes, though. I need the heat for the rejuvalac and also for sprouting. It is cold here in the winter and I let the temperature drop very low at night. Not a great environment for sprouts or anything that requires a warm place to do its thing. But, when the dehydrator is going, the prefect environment is created.

Avocados and peppers were on sale the other day and I was inspired. I love regular corn chips but I wanted to try to make something with a little more zest. The addition of lime and cayenne really give these chips a kick! Great flavor! Be careful, they are addictive. They are especially delicious served with this chunky Guacamole .

    Susan, have you tried raw quinoa & amaranth in your recipes? Both are seeds–not grain. I’d love to find ways of using them, & thought I’d plant a seed in your head.

    Although I have not tried using red bell pepper like your recipe calls for, how do you get yours to be 1/4″ thick? My challenge with raw corn chips is the batter always comes out too watery. Perhaps it’s the type of corn I’m using??

    Great recipe as usual, Susan. So much better than the typical raw chips which have a lot of flax and are weighed down by it. Being a huge admirer of Hinduism & its science of health, Ayurveda, I’m trying to work in raw ginger & turmeric as much as possible–I used both in the chip recipe, and it was amazing. Thank you for sharing your gifts so generously with us.

    How many sheets does this recipe make? I’ve got a lot of frozen organic corn on hand, & am going to make these soon.

    Hello!
    Wow, these look awesome!
    Just 2 questions, if you don’t mind 🙂
    – could I use fresh corn instead of frozen, and would it give the same texture and would I use the same amount (6cups)?
    – around how many chips does this recipe make?

    Thanks a bunch!!
    Love your website! 😀

    Thanks for your lovely email as well.

    Great picture as always

    Best wishes

    This is so cool and looks so good – The question must be how to get people to the site and push this to where it should be @ No 1 Susan!
