RAW Recipes with Proper Food Combining

Hi,
Does anyone know of any Raw Food Recipe sites where they have recipes which follow proper food combining? Or recommended sites, books, etc. I know that there are charts and info out there on basic food combining, but it would be nice to actually have some recipes at hand to help out! And free off the internet if possible!
There seem to be a lot of recipes and books out there but they mix everything up with disasterous combinations, just to make something elaborate and tasty and like a cooked version of the food! I just want simple and healthy recipes that combine correct food groups!
Also, I've noticed that most people tend to eat fruit and nut snacks, fruit and nut muesli and recipes using nut milk and fruit shakes, pies mixing nuts and dried fruit, fats etc. and yet in the food chart it says not to mix these two things. Or is that an exception? What about fats and sugars - avocado puddings are a yummy treat (especially avo and banana and cocoa/carob or date puddings! mmm!), but that is not correct food combining, either - or is it?!
I know many don't believe it's that important to combine correctly when eating RAW, but it makes sense to me, so a little help would be much appreciated! Recipes, lists of food groups etc. are welcomed!
PS My family like cereal for breakfast so I make them a fruit and nut muesli/granola for brekkie but have read that it is best to just have fruit in the morning and not combine fruit with fats/proteins. Contradicting this, I've read that nuts or oil with sweet fruits helps to avoid a sudden sugar spike and is beneficial for blood sugar levels or something because it helps with slow release energy...
Anyone else out there eat muesli for brekkie? Or do you think too much nuts is bad/too fatty?
