Piggies, thankyou for all of your lovely emails, Facebook and Twitter messages, and comments about our "Pride and Prejudice" marathon movie night. It is nice to know there are so many fellow Jane Austen fans out there! Seeing as I couldn't zap you all to our event (believe me, I would have if I could have) I will share the remaining two recipes on our delectable raw vegan menu.

I am staying with her in Arizona this week, and brought some of my raw kale chips as a snack. When I woke up the first morning to find half the bag empty, and a note that read “I need this recipe!!!!!” I thought it was worthy of a post!

The rest of the bag is long gone, and she has ordered an Excalibur dehydrator with much excited anticipation. I served these garlic kale chips up to my... Keep Reading
