directions

FOR THE PIE:
- Blend the pumpkin in a food processor with the S blade until relatively smooth.
- Place the puree pumpkin in a glass bowl with the coconut water or plain water on top. Place the bowl in the dehydrator and dry for 5 hours at 140'F.
- Check it now and again to ensure the water hasn't evaporated completely, its crutial to keep the water coating over the pumpkin to prevent cooking it.
- Drain the apricots. Save the water or drink it, its full of goodies.
- After the pumpkin is dehydrated remove and blend it on high in a high powered blender with the rest of the ingredients.
- Set aside.

I was born in northern Ontario in Canada. I am of Irish /Spanish/French Canadian descent.
In 2002, myself, my hubby Stu, and our dog Ginger moved to the high desert of New Mexico.
I am a Domestic Engineer and a Professional Artist. I enjoy oldies, classical and jazz music.
My hubby is a Professional Jazz and Classical Musician. He plays with the Albuquerque Philharmonic Orchestra which is wonderful because I get to see all his concerts and they are free!
We are trying our best to live a Green and Sustainable lifestyle which is no easy feat in a desert.
I love any cookbook that promotes good health and tasty meals. I enjoy pasta dishes and sweet vegan deserts. I have found that I am very successful in converting conventional recipes to vegan. This has allowed me to enjoy all types of foods that I other wise could not.
Some day we would like to relocate to upstate New York and be closer to my family in Canada and my husbands in New York. My DH retires in 9 years, so nothing will stop us from heading home then :-)
