Book Reviews of Raw Food Made Easy For 1 or 2 People
Book Review: A wonderful treat!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this book along with the DVD and they are both very informative. Especially for people starting out, this book is an easy way to get on the path to raw foods. I found the transition from cooked food to raw fairly easy..things that I crave ie. chocolate and cheese can easily be made to taste like the real thing or better! I would also recommend reading "12 Steps to Raw Foods" by Victoria Boutenko. It is such an informative, interesting read on a familys quest to eating 100% raw foods. Another great book is "The Raw Life and "Raw Knowledge" by Paul Nison. These two books are really what got me sparked on the raw food life. Incredibly informative and I learned things about cooked food that made me swear I would never return to eating it! Paul Nison also includes many interviews from raw fooders and raw food icons such as Viktoras Kulvinskas, co-founder of the Hippocrates Health Institute (formed with Ann Wigmore) and Gabriel Cousins(founder of the Tree of Life Rejuventation Centre) and author of "Conscious Eating" (A MUST READ!)
Raw food has changed my life in so many positive ways. Best wishes to all for choosing to explore this wonderful journey!
Book Review: Delicious recipes, good layout, clear and easy to follow
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been preparing raw food for a couple months now. Juliano's RAW uncookbook was my first book (I wouldn't recommend it for starting out, I didn't get really into raw food until the two books I bought after). I got this book and ani's raw food kitchen at the same time. They're both great books with delicious recipes. I use them a lot, and like them for different reasons. This book is more simple, which I enjoy as the recipes are quicker. I feel that this book helped me the most to understand the basics of preparing raw food. The ingredients are all easily available (unlike juliano's and sometimes ani's). Yes some of the recipes are a bit obvious like making your own lemon juice, but I'm not hung up on that because there is much more to the book than a few over-simplified recipes. If you get this, I highly recommend the almond cookies and carob mousse made with avocado (I love making these for people who aren't familiar with raw preparation, they are always shocked and gobble them down!) But really, most of the recipes are awesome --except for the energizing purifying juice, not so much.Book Review: Great Book!!

Summary: 5 Stars
I am not a vegetarian but was looking to move toward a more healthy eating style. Jennifer Cornbleet's Raw Food Made Easy is true to it's title. She organizes the book well including an equipment list on each recipe page, provides a weekly shopping list which makes grocery shopping a breeze. I've tried several of the recipes and liked them all. This is a well organized book with plenty of resources for the beginning Raw Food enquirer.Book Review: So good and satisfying
Summary: 5 Stars
What is beautiful about this book is that it provides a perfect beginning for those of us who are making the hugh shift to raw food. I'm now 100% raw and have purchased many raw food books and the only one that feels right so far is "Raw food Made Easy". I enjoy learning the basics and building upon them, so learning how to chop parsley doesn't insult my intellect.
Many of the recipes in the other books are overwhelming and after all the sweat and tears, taste like crap. Jennifer's recipes are simple and taste heavenly. I find it easy to adjust to my own tastes and don't feel bad if it doesn't work out.
Some of my favorites: whole oatmeal w/almond milk (YUM!), not tuna, chocolate mousse, marinara and zucchini noodles. All so good and fresh.
Try out Jennifer's dvd, too. She truly is a teacher and the visuals will help with prepping and motivate you to get started.
