Need Some Salad Variety?

Want to add some variety to your salads? Raw foodies or not, this recipe book is an amazing resource. It gives tons of recipes that make eating salads something to look forward to. After making the Taboul-"Live" from this book I can totally see why people stick with the raw food lifestyle. Not only was it delicious and energizing, the salad was beautiful!! I have flagged almost every single recipe in this book as ones I must try soon. All of the recipes are very easy to follow and all of the ingredients I was able to find easily at my local health food store.

Easiest Raw Salad Cookbook I EVER got!

As a raw vegan I am always looking for new salad recipes that are EASY, tasty and use NORMAL ingredients. All things you will find in this book! As a true lover of salads, I was sooooooooooo elated to read Kristen's awesome book on salads and dressings . Oh my oh my. My creativity went buzzing. Her Cayenne Tahini Dressing is most likely going to be a stapel for me. I love tahini and usually just throw it on a salad with lemon juice and stir, but this will make it last much longer and give it extra zip! I'm so excited to try it. With recipes like Italian Bread Salad, Summer Picinic Slaw, The Best Chopped Salad Ever (favorite of mine), and Latin American Fiesta Vinaigrette how could you possibly get bored!!!??!?! If you think salads ahve to be boring or plain, you are sooooooooooo wrong. Honestly, Kristen has been the only raw chef's whose dressigns I have truly truly enjoyed. Somehow she knows just want to put in em...seroiusly. She catered a CSL event that I went to and I had 5 plates of her salad/dressing recipe. People were laughing!!! If you want a change and to give a new definition to salad.... buy this book!

Fresh, fabulous and delish dressings!

When the farmer's markets are open and fresh seasonal veggies are readily available, I could eat salad all day. Much harder during winter in New England when grocery store veggies are limp and tasteless and comfort foods call! But Kristen's book has got me back to eating salads daily. She has a great variety of dressing recipes and that's the key for me. I keep my winter salads simple, just organic greens, it's her dressing recipes that add incredible flavor. My personal favorite, the Zesty Italian Avocado dressing, is so good we seem to be making a batch every other day. The Latin American Fiesta Vinaigrette over Mache and chopped green onions is also fantastic. I keep Kristen's book in my bag, so I have it handy at the grocery store, I can't wait to try every recipe in this book!

Salad & Dressing Fiesta!

Who says salads have to be boring? I used to. Wow, was I wrong. Kristen has certainly changed my perception of what a salad should be. I love how she uses a combination of different ingredients (veggies, seeds, nuts, sprouts, herbs and seasonings) in both her salads and dressings. It's like a party in a bowl. A few of my favorites are the Carrot Celery Celebration, Taboul-Live, Rockin Kale, Sprout Power Mix and the Dazzling Italian Shredded Cabbage. One of my favorite things about this book is the variety of dressings. There are 31 unique and delicious recipes to choose from that are guaranteed to liven up any salad. The Secret Garden Herb and Latin American Fiesta Vinaigrette are a couple of my favorites and the Jamaican Me Hot and Crazy dressing will knock your socks off! Kristen really knows how to kick up the flavor of salads and veggies with her dressings. She offers such an amazing selection of salads and dressings that I never get bored and always look forward to making the next one. Plus, they are filling, taste fantastic and are super nutritious.

Salads made fun and too good for words!

As I was going RAW... I thought of it as all salads and nuts and that was the RAW lifestyle. Well if I would have had this book when I was first learning about RAW and while complaining about the salads... I would have been way more than happy to make my everyday lifestyle all about the salads. Kristen has shown me in this amazing book, that salads can be fun! With fun salad recipes and phenominal dressing to top the peaks of my salads.... I could live on this book. I have turned my family into Salad loving herbivores and forever our health and lifestyles are changed. I love the dressings. I prepare them and take them along with me to share with friends and family at gatherings :)
