What Others Say
An unintimidating introduction to raw foods
I can easily see why Ani has escalated to raw food fame over the past few years. This is actually the second raw food cookbook I have trialed (as a non-raw foodist). The first was the Raw 50, and I unfortunately found it uninspiring and too complex. However, Ani has recaptured my curiosity about the raw food diet.
Since I have yet to dive into raw foodism, beyond salads and smoothies, I don't yet have the helpful equipment like a food dehydrator and a spiralizer. Ani recognizes that though many of us may be interested in dipping our toes in the raw food diet, we don't want to rush out and buy a car load of kitchen equipment just to give it a trial run. There were a surprising amount of recipes I could make with just a knife ... Read More
A MUST-HAVE!
I have several raw food recipe books but this one tops the cake. Yes, there are a lot of pictures of her in the book but her info is so helpful-from beginner to more experienced Raw Foodist; Ani's Raw Food Kitchen: Easy, Delectable Living Foods Recipes is what you need. She is very informative and the recipes are delish. I'm enjoying some chocolate mlylk now...
I love Ani's Raw Food Kitchen
Of course I love Ani's Raw Food Kitchen, since it is my book. :)
Just wanted to post a note since many of you have been commenting and asking me questions.
Thank you for enjoying my book. It means all the world to me to know you are enjoying it, that it is making a difference in your lives, that it is inspiring new ways of thinking.
Some are critical about the number of photos of me throughout the book. I didn't intend for all these photos of myself to be included, but the publisher thought it looked best this way. Also, I really wanted to show a glimpse into the lifestyle of living and eating green. The raw food diet is so much more than just a diet for me. It's changed my life, how I live, how I relate to other ... Read More
YUMMY!
There are soooo many great recipes. Simple and exotic. Ani's Raw Food Kitchen: Easy, Delectable Living Foods Recipes is a must for your collection.
ignore all the pics of ani and you'll be fine
Ok, I gave this cookbook five stars because I personally feel that the recipes are scrumptious and delightful. This is a fantastic cookbook. There, I've said it. If you are new to raw food, pick up a copy of this little beauty. The recipes aren't too frightening, and she rarely uses a dehydrator. Dehydrators can be scary and intimidating if you aren't accustomed to using one, and I think Miss Ani considered that.
Sure, when I was thumbing through it I got a bit peeved at all the silly pictures of pretty Ani and her raw-food-eating-planet-saving-self. And yeah, I kinda felt like beating my head into the wall after reading all her blurbs on living green and loving animals and all that stuff. I mean, jeez, it's a COOKBOOK.
but then i realized ... Read More
