10 Ridiculously Irresistible Raw Recipes

Lindsay Duncan in Food on Jul 7, 2017

Eating raw is one of those things you should just try at least once in your life. You’re not cutting out a ton of food, rather, approaching food and it’s flavors in a different way. By refraining from heating up your meal, the food can maintain as many nutrients as possible and is served in it’s truest form. This is especially wonderful for fruits and vegetables which actually lose a fair amount of nutrients after they are heated. Get a little creative and throw together these snacks, desserts and meals to create a food plan for your week that is rawfully delicious.
