Edible Dirt:

Preheat oven to 300°F. 

Spread raisins, almonds, cashews, bread, olives, crackers and pumpkin seeds on baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes.

Place baked ingredients in the bowl of a food processor. Add extra virgin olive oil and blend ingredients until they begin to resemble dirt. Spread dirt on a baking sheet and cool completely. Store in a covered container at room temperature for a week.

Place edible dirt in individual glass vases or mini wood planters. Fill with a combination of fresh and pickled vegetables to create a garden-like effect. 

Serve with your favorite dips. Try Jamie's Green Tahini.
