Raw Food Diet Recipes For Beginners
I get a lot of questions about where to start on a raw food diet. Raw food seems to be very complex when you first dive in. But it really doesn’t have to be that way.
The best raw food diet recipes for beginners are ones that take no more than 10 minutes to prepare. I know from experience, that if it takes too long to prepare, you simply won’t do it, and will probably reach for something else that isn’t so good for you.
I found a resource a long time ago that really helped me. Yuri gives you a 12 week meal plan all laid out with easy to follow recipes. No recipe takes longer than 10 minutes.
If you are new and want to just check out Yuri’s stuff, I offer his raw food diet recipes green smoothie guide for free on my site.

If you don’t have the budget or space for all of that, aren’t there any quick raw food recipes? Fortunately, there are a lot of ways to make food fast, while not cheating on your raw food lifestyle. You can even check out Raw Food Restaurants if you don’t feel like preparing raw foods at home!
The simplest quick raw food recipes are, of course, slices fruits and vegetables. An apple is probably the quickest raw food there is! However, it’s also possible to find breads and similar products produced with sprouted grains, and cooked at a low temperature to minimize enzyme and vitamin loss, which are great for making sandwiches, or including in other quick raw food recipes.
Other time-consuming foods can become quick raw food recipes with a bit of forethought. Setting beans, rice, or other grains and legumes to soak overnight eliminates having to do this lengthy step during the day, so all that’s needed to do is to drain, rinse, and then use them in quick raw food recipes. Soaked chickpeas are great for preparing a fast and delicious hummus, while soaked quinoa, tossed with some fresh chopped vegetables, herbs, and a little olive oil and lemon juice, makes a fantastic salad rich in protein and fiber.
Quick raw food recipes certainly exist, and they can be every bit as satisfying as their cooked versions, while retaining all of the benefits of raw food, and being a snap to prepare.
