Raw book suggestions

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
Hey! Compiling my amazon Christmas list and going raw at the same time. I'd like some suggestions regarding raw food...um...recipe books, i guess is how you'd say it. What i look for in a recipe book is easy recipes, not too many exotic/expensive ingredients.
Thanks!

Alissa Cohen's book is awesome...it made me go raw and helped me stay raw. Her website, www.rawfoodtalk.com, is an invaluable resource as well. I have a ton of raw books but hers is my fave. I do also like Ani Phyo's. Raw Food Real World is a beautiful and inspiring book but the recipes are more complicated and time consuming.

I love Ani Phyo's Ani's Raw Food Kitchen and for super quick and tasty meals, Bryan Au's Raw Food in Ten Minutes.

IMHO there really isn't any better book than the Live Food Factor.

Check it out here with lots of bonus gifts: Live Food Factor Special Offer

It is a complete review and of how AND why raw food diets can be good. It includes a lot of simple recipes and information.

Sergie and Valya Boutenko, along with their mother, have such an inspiring story. I would suggest their recent book, Fresh!

This is a good beginning book, or for someone who wants quick and simple dishes. Each recipe has 5 ingredients.

Ani Phyo's books are okay, but the Boutenko's books are nice and simple.

There's also The Raw Food Revolution by Vesanto Melina.

Carol Alt did a raw book a few years ago, but I don't remember whether or not the recipes were complicated.

For really jaw-dropping raw food, Matthew Kenney's Everyday Raw is really nice.

For fancier occasions (and you can take simpler ideas from these), there's Sarma Mengalis' Living Raw Foods and her Raw Food Real World.

And there's also Russell James, The Raw Chef, who has an amazing collection of e-books: http://www.therawchef.com/products.html
