½ Cup Wheat or Rye Berries
Filtered Water as needed

Spaghetti
6 Cups Zucchini or Squash [3-4 medium veggies], julienned lengthwise

Garnish
2 tsp Thyme Leaves
12 Basil Leaves
12 Raw Olives

Directions
Marinara – In food processor, pulse sun-dried tomatoes until redued to small pieces. Add tomatoes, garlic, salt, shallot, olive oil, maple syrup & lemon juice, processing until smooth.

Rawmesan – In high speed blender, combine pine nuts & Rejuvelac. Process until thick & creamy. Pour into a small bowl, cover with kitchen towel & let stand in warm place 12-14 hours, until mixture smells like it has begun to ferment. Stir in salt & yeast, mixing carefully. Spread mixture in 1/8 inch-thick layer on nonstick drying sheets & place in dehydrator at 105 degrees F for 10-14 hours, until it breaks easily into dime-sized flakes.

Rejuvelac – In the evening, place berries in a sprouting jar & fill with water, allowing to stand overnight. The next morning, drain & spread them on a sprouting rack or a glass rectangular container lined with wet paper towels. Leave them to sprout for 1-2 days, rinsing 3 times a day. They are ready when ¼ inch tails have emerged. Place sprouts in a wide container with at least 3 inch high sides & add 4 cups filtered water. Let stand in a warm spot for 12-14 hours or until the liquid smells slightly fermented. Strain off liquid [this is the Rejuvelac] into a clean jar. The same sprouts may be used 3 more times to make additional Rejuvelac.

Assemble Spaghetti – Place spaghetti “noodles” on plate. Top with marinara, pieces of Rawmesan, herbs & olives. Serve & enjoy!
