Raw Food, Fast Food by Philip McCluskey is a must have for the busy raw foodist! From the introduction:
“Part of what I’ve come to love so much about the raw lifestyle is it’s simplicity. Even though I still found myself occasionally daunted when I have friends and family to feed: the thought of devoting more than half an hour in the kitchen makes me want to head for the door! So I’ve challenged myself to come up with easy, fast, nutritious and delicious recipes for EVERYONE to make in about 10 minutes or less, and with nothing more than a basic blender. Otherwise, you can consider this a “no tools required,” book.”
That is awesome. Quick, easy, and no tools required other than a basic blender! So many people I talk to tell me that they can’t afford to live this way because- no high speed blender, no dehydrator, etc… Now there are no excuses. Just get this book! It will get you started. From here you can experiment on your own.
Philip lost over 200 lbs following a raw food diet and has maintained that weight loss. He is a true inspiration!
