Spicy Corn Chips

by Susan on February 14, 2009

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.

Spicy Corn Chips

  • 6 C.  Frozen Corn
  • 1 Red Pepper
  • Juice from 2 limes
  • 2 t. Cayenne
  • 1 t. Paprika
  • pinch of celtic sea salt

Guacamole

Blend all ingredients in food processor. Spread on non-stick sheet on top of mesh sheet at least 1/4″ thick as these will really dehydrate down. Score into the shape you desire. Dehydrate 10 hours, pull off of the non-stick sheet and dry until very dry. Place right side up as chips will curl if you flip them.

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!

Hi Susan,
wow these corn chips look awesome. I love frozen corn (I actually eat the kernels frozen – I have done this since I was little hehe). I will have to try these, definitely. Yum!!!
Thanks for your lovely email as well.

Great picture as always

Best wishes

I’m new to using a dehydrator. What is a mesh sheet?

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! :D
