Hermit Crab Food Recipes
Unfortunately I have no indications as to who may have created this list though I suspect the list came from Kerie Campbell. I know there are
endless food ideas but these may help get you started.
Fruity Fish & Flowers II
dried calendula (about 2 tsp.)
dried chamomile (about 1 tsp.)
coconut chunk
large papaya chunk
pink flame rose bud
Kibble and place in the serving dish.
Air-pop about 1 Tbl. amaranth
shred some dulse
1 Tbl. Flott tuna
1 tsp rolled oats
large pinch dandelion root
large pinch dried dandelion leaf.
Kibble and place on top of the fruit dish, sort of a reverse-chutney.
Star Fruit Surprise
Part One: Fruit Salad
1 Tbl. dried pumpkin seed
1 chunk skin-on red delicious apple
6-8 raisins
chunk of old banana
lg. pinch of dried calendula
1 tsp. red clover seed
1 tsp. dried hibiscus flowers
5 sunflower sprouts
1 tsp honey
Kibble, garnish with slice of starfruit.
Part Two: Crunchy Eggs Variant
Kibble:
1/2 eggshell
2 baby carrots
several 1 inch squares of dried nori
1 tsp. hempseed
Cook lightly in coconut oil over low heat until carrot starts to
soften. Add beaten egg and cook gently until just set.
Put in bowl next to Starfruit Surprise, garnish all with some
popcorn popped in coconut oil. Serve!
Copepod Quiche
Preheat oven to 425.
3-4 amaranth graham crackers
1 tsp. melted coconut oil
1-2 tsp. soymilk
Mix well until soggy but still firm. Press into a ceramic serving
dish. I use the Petco ones — you can see them in several of the
pictures in the photo album, approx. 3 inches in diameter and half an
inch deep.
Bake for about 5 minutes, until crust is firming up.
1 egg (discard half to two thirds of the white)
2 tsp. soy milk
pinch of Esprit du Sel (mortared & pestled)
1 heaping teaspoon dried copepods
1/2 tsp. kelp powder
crushed dried jasmine flowers (about 6)
1/2 tsp. rooibos
Mix well, pour into crust. Bake about 8 minutes — it will puff up in
the middle when done — don’t leave it a second longer!
Cut into wedges for number of servings needed. This recipe is
freezable!
Garnish with 1/2 eggshell and sunflower sprouts.
