The pesto-stuffed mushrooms are good. You won't even necessarily notice they're not raw. Also things with guacamole are nice and filling--I think that is what cooked food eaters are most worried about in a raw meal; whether or not it will actually fill them up. Psychologically they're not used to feeling full on a salad.
