raw and living

i may have mentioned in an earlier post that my husband and i are eating 70% raw these days. i actually have so much to say about it, so much so that i don't know where to start. eating raw has a ton of health benefits and for us, eating 70% raw involves eating a raw breakfast and lunch and a cooked dinner. technically, to make it 70%, we need to eat one raw dinner per week. eating raw gives me a lot more energy and i have an easier time concentrating both at work and with homework.

although my weekday meals are pretty simple, i.e. a raw juice for breakfast and a salad and snacks for lunch, i do at times try to make some fancier dishes. this weekend, two of my best girlfriends came over for lunch and i made a raw stuffed pasta dish. they also helped me to prepare a raw coconut pie (with a raw nutella layer) that was delicious. here are some pictures:

i feel like eating raw is changing my life in huge ways. i hope to talk more about raw and living foods over the course of the semester, but if you have questions, let's chat in the comments section.
