Following a vegan, raw foods diet does not mean you have to give up your
favorite delicacies or condemn yourself to a life of celery and carrot
sticks. As renowned raw foods chef Matt Amsden reveals in this vibrant,
inspiring book, raw cuisine represents the discovery and innovative use
of luscious natural ingredients. From imaginative new dishes such as
cactus salad, onion bread, and spirulina pie, to tantalizing variations
on everything from pizza, tacos, and cookies, to the signature "Big Matt
with Cheese," Amsden's mouthwatering recipes feature soups, sauces,
salads, appetizers, entrees, and even desserts.
More than a cookbook, RAWvolution is the indispensable, all-inclusive
guide to the many powerful benefits of raw food. Beginning with his
personal account of "How I Went Raw," Amsden shares essential advice,
information, and encouragement for adopting a raw foods lifestyle. His
delectable recipes are organized by type, level of difficulty, and what
equipment, if any, is necessary in their creation. Accessible to both
beginners and experienced cooks, RAWvolution addresses everyone from
vegetarians who want to take the next step in natural cuisine, to those
who simply want to diversify and improve their everyday diet.
There has never been a more important time to incorporate raw foods into
your lifestyle. Raw, vegan cuisine is making news daily, providing
healthy and nutritious alternatives that are changing lives. Best of
all, raw food can be delicious. There is no need to sacrifice flavor for
bland and boring "health" food. Enliven your senses and taste buds
instead with rich, living cuisine.
