Recipe book recommendations?

Date: December 26, 2006 04:56AM Hi everyone--just getting into eating more raw foods and I'm wondering what "un-cook books" you all like. I have read "The Raw Food Detox Diet" by Natalia Rose and (I think it's called) "The Complete Raw Food Book" --lots of recipes by raw foods chefs. I like how that one lists the equipment you'll need right at the beginning of the recipe. These came from the library so I have to give them back. Any other recipe books really worth their (celtic sea) salt?
Thanks and happy holidays! Re: Recipe book recommendations?

Date: January 07, 2007 07:42AM When I turned raw I bought a bunch of books, not realizing the fact that there are many opinions out there about what a good living foods diet is. Also, some "raw" books have cooked receipies?? Go figure.
As a result of a lot of studying and making up my idea of what for me a good raw diet was going to be, I tossed several raw books. So, I like to recommend two books that will give you a really sound foundation of what superior raw or living food eating is all about. Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine by Gabriel Cousens, MD The Sun food diet success system by David Wolfe What, you will find out is that there are raw books containing recepies that have a lot of sugary, foods, sometimes not having enough green veggies. That's why I recommend reading these two books and go from there. Re: Recipe book recommendations?

Date: January 23, 2007 03:41AM i finally saw the rainbow green live food cuisine book today.by gabriel cousens.it is a wonderful book. i could not afford it just yet.it was 30$ but very lovely.nice pictures of the food prepared and alot of info i need to read.it seems very worth the money.i noticed though that the temps he uses are 145 degrees in his food dryer. and i heard it was suppose to be like 105-110 degrees.so that part was interesting.i cann't wait to buy the book.there was only one book at borders and i hope it is there when i go back on maybe thursday.then i can get the book.thanks for the good recommendation robert9876.taylor Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
