Hello!

I found this forum a few days ago and was glad to see how big raw food is! It's hard to see it when talking with people. Most just stare at me when I say that I have been experimenting with raw food. I guess I did too...

I first learned about raw food at school a few years ago. I had a couple of classmates who would bring soaked nuts and nori and I had no clue. I was eating heavy duty survival food at that time and thought they were crazy.

I recently became a vegan since many of my friends have become vegan/vegetarian after seeing a movie Food Inc (I didn't see it myself). I decided, I had enough dried mushroom this season to get me through the winter. It was an easy decisiion.

I ran into Steve Pavlina's raw food experiment and started reading. I thought I wasn't able to incorporate it into my daily life (too much chewing and eating throughout the day that's not sustainable for me) but then I bought a spiral slicer and realized that I can do it! I would like to be at 50% raw. I got my vita-mix yesterday and looking for a dehydrator now.

I borrowed some books from the library but I'd prefer a website with a database of recipes (like vegweb but raw). Any suggestions?

We have an entire section of recipes here that you can browse through. In addition, you can use the search option and enter something, like zucchini, for example and see what pops up from the recipe forum about that.

Good luck. :)

Hi AllergyGirl,

Thanks for your reply. I haven't been able to find a list of recipes without the threads (basically, I am looking for just the recipes themselves). Do you know what I mean?
