To make the pie-crust you need to grate two cupfuls of raw potato, you can use any potato, sweet potato would work well. Add the potato to a large bowl. In your processor with the s blade add 1 cup of organic oats and pulse until fine and resembling flour, add this to the potato in the bowl. Next drizzle over the mixture some olive oil about 2 tbsps, then add some herbs of your choice, I used herbs de provence, rosemary would work well or basil, add a pinch of sea salt. You can pulse all the mixture together in your processor if you like a smooth finish, or you can mix in your bowl with enough water to bind the mixture together to form a dough like ball. In individual silicone mini tartlet cases press with your fingers enough dough mixture into the case to make a blind tart. Place your filled cases into the dehydrator oven at 45 C for 1.5 hours, then carefully remove from the silicone cases and sit your blind pie cases back on the shelf and bake for a further 8 hours at 50 C. All dehydrator ovens work a little differently so check your cooking regularly and adjust cooking times as needed. If you want to bake these in a conventional oven you can bake in the cases for around 20 mins at 120 F

The filling is chopped raw kale, carrots, with red and yellow peppers. For added protein have sprinkled puffed quinoa which is cooked.

Blend ingredients together. Layer the filling into the pie case just before serving and enjoy.
