Thumbs up Way to go kiasmine!

Welcome to your transition into Live Foods. You really started off in style. Raw Food Real World has tons of great recipes although they are a bit more difficult and time consuming. I am envious of the Eggplant Filled Scallion Pancakes. I have always wanted to make those. I really really reccomend the Spicy Chili Lime Almonds and the Jalepeno Corn Tortilla Chips. Long term raw foodist don't usually eat corn but I don't fret over raw corn once in a while.

My favorite book that contains faster recipes that are really good is the Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine. I had avoided the book for a couple years because it didn't have very many pictures! Anyways that was silly on my part. The book has become my very favorite. I use it so much that I had to take it to a copy store to have the binding removed and have it spiral bound because it began to wear out. If you try out the recipes I suggest you go easy on those that call for salt or ceyenne as their were a few typos and a few of my dishes tasted like feta or were too hot.

Once this raw food thing gets normal your prep time won't take nearly as long. In the begining it is a shock though

If you are looking for more fancy recipes Like Real World Pick up Matt Amsden's book Rawvolution.

Congrats again
