If anything, I enjoyed the information about raw foods in the beginning more than the recipes. The photography is beautiful and inspiring on every single page. She explains the nutritional content of everything... from the raspberries you snack on, to the chives that top your soup. I get writer's block when I'm forming a grocery list, now all I have to do is flip through the beginning of this. Now onto the recipes. The smoothies aren't anything too special. The chips and dips section however, wa...more
I was excited to learn I would be reviewing this Recipe Book. My husband is all about energy drinks, bars and things of that nature. I hate it that he consumes all that sugar in those energy drinks and I thought the Raw Energy Recipe Book would be a great way to get him to eat more healthy and still have his energy boosts threw out the day.

I've read through a lot of recipe books lately and so far this is one of my favorites. So often when I read through a healthy cookbook I think yuck I wouldn't eat that! Not the case with these recipes. I've picked out 20 recipes I want to try. This book has a lot of snack like foods but as my kids will be heading back to school soon I'm looking for healthy "treats" to add to the lunches they'll be taking to school so these recipes are exactly what I was looking for.

Sadly this book is missing pictures for most of its recipes; however, there are tons of delicious ideas. I have used several with great success, and only one dud. The author does waste a lot of print space going on and on about how wonderful each ingredient is for you. Save that info for the intro chapters, and leave the recipe pages for only what we need to know to make each dish, please.

Can't stop making these recipes. Yum. God knows what I'll do with all this "raw energy", though. . .
I think there were about 5 recipes that I will try from this book. If I ever decide to buy things like agave nectar, tahini or spirulina this might be the book for me. I highly doubt it.
She's not over the top. I like that.

Great recipes! But it's helpful to have a food processor and a dehydrator.
Great simple raw-food recipes and tips. Yum!
Healthy, easy and accessible recipes using all raw ingredients. Yum.
The downside of vegan is all the hard work involved with making the recipes, mores the pity. I photocopied 2 recipes for future experiments and gave it away to a more ambitious cook!
