Make-ahead Tummy Warming Mix

(compare to Crazy Corn?++ Mix etc.)

1 cup green and yellow split peas 1 cup whole wheat kernels 1 cup lentils 1 cup Quinoa can substitute other grains 1 cup finely chopped nuts - walnuts, almonds, sunflower meats etc. 1 cup coconut 1 cup raisins, dates and cranberries (dried)* 1 cup dehydrated banana chips* 1 cup wild rice 2 cups home dehydrated fruit bits* 1 cup home dehydrated vegetables* 1 cup barley 1 TA cinnamon 1 TA nutmeg 1 TA allspice When cooking the recipe, cook 1 cup veggie pasta (per directions on box) and add it to the mix before freezing. Mix 1 part of make-ahead mix to 3 parts water. Cook approximately 1/2 hour. If there is any water left in pan after cooking add some instant rice, you want all of the water to be absorbed; there are a lot of nutrients in this water. Cool and freeze in serving size portions. Thaw as needed and feed warm. You can add Petamine or crushed pellets to the warm mix. *I dehydrate my own fruits and vegetables, you can purchase them also. It is very easy to dehydrate foods, even in an oven if you don't have a dehydrator. Let me know if anyone wants me to post the method I use. Make-ahead mix can be stored in a tightly covered container in the fridge.
