One of the great things about being raw is the extreme creativity that people bring to their recipes.
As a lazy bachelor, one of the things I hate to do is cook.
What to do?! What a conundrum!
I am creating this thread for myself and any other lazy raw foodies out there.
If there are any.
I do admit I might be the only one :)
I issue this challenge to all your fabulous raw chefs and cooks out there: give me something fabulous and easy, five ingredients or less. No dehydrating (remember I’m lazy), no smoothies! (but not that lazy, I mean, dang)
Post a recipe, post a link, whatever.
You up for that? Feeling lucky? Feeling creative? Have at it!

You might want to have a hunt round Google, I seem to remember seeing a raw foodist who’s speciality was recipe books with 5 ingredients, and I think he did one with 3 or less as well. Sorry can’t remember his name.
Great idea for a thread though.
Hehe…
“Midnight Snack” :
Mix together about 1 teaspoon coconut oil, 1 tablespoon coco powder (raw, or not), 1/3 cup dried shredded coconut, and 1 tablespoon agave. Chop up 1 or 2 bananas into small pieces and stir until well coated with the coco-coconut. Enjoy! =)
two ingredients:
young coconut meat (the thick kind, cut into strips like shortish noodles)
miso
mix together and eat. surprisingly delicious
My favorite desert is cashew and maple syrup (or agave).Taste like sweet milk (doce de leite).And also apple sauce with flax seeds (blended apples).
Hmmm . . . usually I either make a smoothie, a salad, or else a gourmet meal. I don’t really have a lot of recipes in between, but here are three I could pull up:
Cut up cubes of papaya and then squeeze the juice of a lime over them. Delicious combo!
Chocolate mousse:
1/2C cacao powder
1/2C carob powder
1 avocado
10 dates, soaked
2T agave
Optional: Vanilla extract, mint leaves & raspberries (for garnish)
Mock Salmon Pate:
1C walnuts
2 stalks celery
1 large red pepper
1 scallion
1/2t cajun
This would go well on salad, or as a dip with zucchini chips.
