The following recipes came from the WALTONFEED.COM site:
Whole-Grain Crackers
Yield: 48 crackers
3 T Peanut butter or tahini
4 T Buttermilk
1/4 c Soy flour
1 T Oil
1 c Flour, whole wheat pastry
1 T Yeast, brewers
Combine wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients. Mix the two
thoroughly. Let the dough sit five minutes to absorb all the liquid. Add more flour or buttermilk (usually buttermilk) to make a dough pliable enough to work. Lightly flour a board, and knead dough enough to form a ball.
Cut dough in four parts, dust with flour, and roll out 1/16 inch thick. Cut crackers with a cookie cutter, and prick each cracker several times with a fork.
Place crackers close together on a greased cookie sheet, and let dry while the oven heats to 400 F. Bake crackers five to eight minutes. They burn quickly, so watch very closely after five minutes. Five is often enough, anyway. Pull the done crackers off the sheets if the thinner ones get to looking done while the thicker ones need time.
Cool thoroughly and store in airtight plastic bags. Also can be frozen
**************
Homemade Graham Crackers
3 c Whole wheat flour*
1/2 t Salt
1/2 t Baking powder
1/4 t Cinnamon
6 T Butter
1/2 c Honey (USE AGAVE INSTEAD)
* This recipe was way too wet, experiment with slowly adding more flour. Sift
together flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon into a bowl. (this note is a message of the person who's recipe this is and is NOT my direction).
Melt together the butter and honey (agave). Pour into dry ingredients
Mix with a fork, then push the dough together with your hands. Don't knead or over mix. Place the dough on a well-floured surface, and roll it with a well-floured rolling pin to 1/8 inch thick. Cut rectangles (approximately 1 1/4 x 3 inches) with a knife, and prick them with a fork.
Place on a lightly-greased baking tray, and bake for just 10 minutes in a 375 degrees F. oven. Cool on a rack.
-- *Way too wet. Had to add a lot more flour. They were excellent though. --
****************
Oat Crackers
1 1/2 c Rolled oats
1 c Flour
1/2 c Wheat germ
1/2 ts Salt
1/3 c Oil
2/3 c Water
Mix dry and wet ingredients separately. Then combine them together. Roll out
dough 1/8 inch thick onto an oiled cookie sheet. Score and bake at 325F for 25 to 30 minutes

From WHOLELIFE.COM site:
Kim’s Spinach Triangles
3 packages frozen chopped spinach, 300 grams each
1-1/3 cups diced onion
2—3 cups sliced mushrooms
salt and pepper to taste
2 beaten eggs
1/2 lb. feta, crumbled (250 grams)
1/3 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
1 tsp. dried dill
pinch nutmeg
1/4 cup butter
1 package phyllo pastry (use whole wheat or spelt if possible)
Cook and drain chopped spinach and press out moisture. Saute onions, mushrooms, salt and pepper if using. Add eggs and cheese. Mix in crumbs. Add spinach and heat mixture through. Remove from heat. May place in fridge to use later in the day. Follow directions on phyllo package regarding thawing and using. Use 2 sheets at a time and brush melted butter on about 3 inches of each short edge of each sheet. With a sharp knife, score into 4 long strips. Place 1—2 tbsp. of filling on end of each strip and roll into triangles as shown on package. Bake at 425º F until lightly browned. Or freeze on wax paper in a single layer, place frozen triangles in a container and bake frozen at 350º F until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. –Contributed by Kim Cook

Wendy’s Spinach Pie
2 -1/2 lbs. fresh or frozen spinach
1-1/2 tbsp butter
2 medium onions, chopped
4 large eggs, beaten
2 tsp. dill
1 heaping tsp. paprika
2—3 garlic cloves, chopped fine
8 ounces Feta cheese (may use Vegan rella)
8 ounces warm milk (rice or soy are fine)
1 lb. phyllo pastry (use spelt or whole wheat and follow directions on package for thawing and using)
Olive oil
Prepare spinach. If using raw, chop into thin strips, sprinkle with salt and leave 1 hour. Squeeze out excess water. Saute onions in butter. Beat eggs and add onions, spices, garlic and cheese. Combine this with spinach. Add milk to mixture to make it creamy but not runny. May not need all of the milk. Brush 2 sheets phyllo with oil. Line 9 x 13 pan with 5 sheets (2 layers of phyllo each) so it overlaps up the sides of pan, one half in the pan and one half out so this overlay will make a cover as a topping. Oil each layer as you go. Pour in the spinach filling. Fold the double pastry sheets up over top to form a sandwich. Place 5 more sheets on the pan top, all oiled. Pour 2 tbsp. oil over top and brush. Sprinkle water on edges of pastry to prevent curling. Score the top. Allow pie to settle 1 hour before baking. Bake at 350º F for 35—40 minutes. Serve. Also good cold. —Contributed by Wendy Schindel

For those with a breadmaker...
Got this recipe off the BAKESHOP USA website, haven't tried it but it looks good. There is such a small amount of banana in this recipe I felt that since you aren't going to be eating all of it (or at least you shouldn't) that it wouldn't have any effect on us
Please let me know if anyone tries it!
BANANA BREAD
3/4 cup Buttermilk
1/3 cup Banana -- mashed
1 1/2 Eggs
1 1/2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
3 tablespoons Honey USE AGAVE!
1/3 teaspoon Salt
1/3 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/3 teaspoon Baking soda
1 1/2 tablespoons Vital gluten -- to 3 tbls
2 1/4 cups Whole wheat flour
3/4 cup Oats
1 1/2 teaspoons Yeast
Add ingredients according to manufacturer's directions
. Medium color setting. Makes 1-1/2 lb loaf.
_NOTE: Watch the dough as the banana may affect the moisture.
