Life saving book This is an easy to read and understand book. The recipes are easy to make and very tasty. I have gotten copies for several of my adult children since they have eaten many of the dishes that I prepared for my husband and wanted the recipes!
A great way to enjoy more raw food I barrowed this book from a friend who had brought a fabulous uncooked pepper marinara sauce to a dinner party.I tried a few more recepies and they were all so excellent that I knew I should own this book too.I do try to eat alot of raw food but am not bound to eating soley raw,so I enjoy mixing some of the soups and sauces with steamed food and it works out great.The chefs who developed this recipe book are truely some of the best!It's a great addition to any cooks collection of cook books.I love it!Densely packed with both info and recipes If you are serious about improving your diet and really understanding why you need to do that, this is a FANTASTIC book. I keep returning and re-reading both the science behind, and the art of preparing, raw foods. I do not eat 100% raw, but this book provides so many wonderful recipes that I just want to make one after another. I may end up with a higher percentage of raw because Cousens enables me to prepare wonderful, filling and healthy meals. I also feel very able to invent my own gourmet concoctions since this book explains how to put ingredients together in a pleasing way. A great foundational raw book, or a valuable addition to any collection!
