So it has already been five full days of eating 100 percent raw food. I really thought I would crave something cooked, but I am just loving this! Tonight we were invited by a good friend of mine to a raw food party! That was super exciting to me for a few reasons. First, it’s […]
Raw Food Challenge: Day 2
Simplicity Today was day two of the raw food challenge. It was a bit hard getting back into the groove of things after having been gone on vacation. It was one of those trips that went so well, I just wasn’t ready for it to be over. So this morning when the alarm rang at […]
Vegan Pumpkin Cookies
Now, really… who doesn’t like pumpkin? Especially this time of year, during the fall season, there is something about pumpkin, cinnamon and nutmeg together. So delicious, my mouth is watering right now. Since stream lining my eating to vegan and raw a few months ago, I am always on the lookout for versions of my […]
Zesty Tropical Mango Lettuce Wraps
Recently I went to a large dinner party, where I knew there would be little if any raw foods for me to eat. I brought these lettuce wraps and they were a big hit! When I am invited over for dinner, I always in a very gentle manner explain that I am very happy to […]

Raw Banana Ice Cream Parfait
I have been working a lot on raw dessert recipes. For one, because with these 85 degree days here in L.A. I am often desiring ice cream, sorbet or a cold refreshing dessert. But, also because I think about the fact that so many kids eat so much junk with sweets, candy, soda, etc. that […]
RAWsome Food Adventure
One of my favorite things to do is to eat out at different raw restaurants. Not just because I absolutely love the rawsome food, but I love bringing friends to enjoy a little adventure of stepping into the raw food world for an evening. I love to see their reaction as they receive their plate […]
How to Make Delicious Salt & Oil Free Salad Dressings
One of the beauties about eating raw is that you really learn to enjoy the pure, raw, natural taste of food. The taste buds are cleared of all the toxic taste stimulators in processed foods, such as salt, thus the natural flavors of whole foods intensify. So I really like to keep my meals simple […]
Raw Creamy Acorn Squash Soup
One thing I love about squash is that it is so versatile and there are so many varieties to choose from. Now that colder weather is coming, for some of us already here 🙁 , some find it a challenge to maintain a raw diet because they gravitate to warmer, heated foods. What is one […]
