Lizards for Dessert (Mesquite Flour Recipe)

[Guest guest]

Some Native American tribes make a traditional " cookie " out of ground mesquite

bean flour. The flour is mixed with water, shaped into the form of little

animals (such as lizards) and left to dry in the sun. Then they are stored for

eating throughout the year. A LIZARD FOR DESSERT! You notice no sugar was added.

That is because mesquite beans are quite sweet with natural sugar; the kind that

is best for your body.

 

Try:

 

2 cups mesquite flour

water to make a clay

Re: URL/Atkins Diet Dangers

 

 

Judy-

 

I have to admit other then teff I have not heard of these other grains

either. We eat a lot of brown rice, millet, and corn for grains. I was

going to add all the different flours, but they are not all grains. We

eat a lot of seeds too. Hope this helps.
