Hi I'm Heidi from OHIO

[gotveggies]

I'm a homeschooling mom and I want to become vegan and then go raw. My family is not interested in being either but they are vegetarian so I need to get support from all of you. If anyone has some recipes that are easy for a beginner and taste good please let me know!!

Welcome Heidi, I'm so glad that you are looking to become vegan and raw.

What equipment do you have? Maybe we can suggest some recipes that will work for your equipment.

Have you picked up Alissa's Living on Live Food book? Alissa has a ton of recipes in there that are simple and easy to make.

Welcome Hiedi.....one thing you could try without going raw are the green smoothies: banana, spinach, fresh squeezed orange juice etc. They are quick, filling, give you energy and help curb your taste for sweets. All you need is a regular blender. Hope you enjoy the forum....I do.
