Product Description
This visually lively gourmet raw food recipe book provides all the information you need for increasing your health and well-being through a raw foods diet. The recipes will motivate anyone who wants to have more energy, vitality, and abundant health without feeling deprived of their former cuisine. In addition, the book introduces readers to the ways that we can transform our physical bodies and our consciousness through a combination of living foods, yoga, meditation, breath work, and much more.
The first third of the book introduces raw cuisine, giving information on nutrition and the benefits of adopting this lifestyle. It connects raw food to other modalities, to enable the whole process of physical, emotional, and spiritual transformation.
The next two thirds of the book features over 300 raw food recipes that are surprisingly diverse and easy to make. These recipes include entrees such as Indian Vegetable Curry and Pad Thai, desserts such as Banana Coconut Cream Pie, and a wide variety of salads, breads, crackers, side dishes, shakes, smoothies, soups, dressings, marinades, dips, and much more. Unlike many natural foods recipe books, this one uses only familiar, easy-to-find ingredients.
The book ends with a list of sources for blenders, juicers, kitchen gadgets, organic and specialty foods, as well as health retreat centers. It also includes a glossary and recommended reading list.

 The Raw Mess October 15, 2008

I am a raw food and creative food fan but have to say don't even think of buying this book unless you own a Champion juicer, machete, dehydrator, and a lot of time to find and prepare food (you might, but even then there are better choices than this book). Many of the recipes require extensive lists of ingredients including other recipes in the book. Recipes requiring other recipes are not referenced with page numbers, annoying. For the Festive Thai Salad, you need 19 ingredients including a green Hawaiian papaya, a standard ripe papaya, and two persimmons (not in my Whole Foods...) You will need to find sapotes for the Pumpkin Pie and the Pineapple Pie. Moroccan Hot Sauce needs to be made a week in advance. Sadly even the simple Tahini Dressing was so awful I had to throw it away. If you do have time and ingredients, want a true chef's perspective, and carefully constructed recipes, check out the Matthew Kennedy books.

I was really looking forward to getting this book, but was a bit disappointed when recieved it. I really had expected a lot more recipes in the veggie department. Working with fruit is so simply for me, and thats a lot of the contents in this book. It is great book for the smoothie, and summer type food lover. I was hoping to get more knowledge on recipes with more raw vegetables. There should have been more variety, in my opinion. Especially with GREENS! Didnt love it.

I have 7 raw recipe books and this one is my favorite. The recipes are easy to follow and are just scrumptious. The pictures give an accurate idea of how the recipes will turn out however, it is the information found in the book that make it so great.
