Dinner in the Raw

Think preparing raw foods requires special ingredients and time-consuming processes? Think again. The following recipes by Mark Reinfeld and Jennifer Murray, coauthors of The 30 Minute Vegan, prove that raw cuisine can be fast, easy, and delicious year-round.

You don’t have to make a radical change in your diet to feel the benefits of eating raw foods, says Reinfeld. “Our suggestion is to take it easy. Eat most of a meal raw or eat a lot of it raw—we like to make cooked pasta, but then top it with a raw sauce, for example.”
