Confessions of an East Coast Raw Vegan Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The book's honest and entertaining introduction offers inspiration and insight to anyone who seeks to improve their relationship with food. After reading it and trying many of the delicious dishes, I have significantly cut down on eating meat and overall become a healthier eater.
Even a novice dehydrator (like myself) can make AMAZING food with the recipes - they are that clear and precise. I especially love the flatbreads. As someone who tries to cut down on gluten intake, these have offered a much-needed (and better tasting) alternative to baked bread. The salads and desserts are also a hit, impressing even the most finicky eater whenever I take one to a potluck.
In sum this is absolutely brilliant. The author truly is an artist, with the palette being her canvas.

The Raw Transformation: Energizing Your Life with Living Foods Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Recently, my mother got married and I was seated at a table with a raw (or living) food advocate. Having heard her story how eating raw cured her husband from arthritis and having tasted a mock strawberry cheesecake made from cashew nuts and cashew nut butter (it was fabulous)...I rushed to buy the book that evening.
I am an extremely visual person, so getting a book that had pictures of the finished recipes was a necessity, as well as getting a book that outlined the raw food principles, fasting and more. To say the least, I was far from disappointed.
The recipes in this book include: burgers, tacos, vegetable chips, pizza, pasta, soups, dips, dressings, salads, smoothies, juices, teas, cheescakes, pies, cookies...and they all look mouth-watering. Even my meat-eating boyfriend likes the look (and taste) of these delightful recipes. The recipes aren't complicated...they just require a little time and effort, which is common of raw living. They do require a dehydrator (you can pick one up for 30 bucks at Sears), a juicer, a blender and a saladacco (a spiral pasta maker for vegetables)...however if you're just starting out like me, you can use your oven at a very low heat with the door open to "dehydrate" foods to get used to it, you can use a cheese grater to make zucchini spaghetti.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in dabbling in raw food...it's extremely tasty, simple recipes and best of all good for you...I mean would you pass up the opportunity to eat "pizza" with a side of vegetable chips and a slice of cheesecake AND it be good for you AND taste delicious? Packed with vitamins, minerals, fiber and goodness...Give it a whirl, I promise you won't be disappointed.
