Raw Newbie
Before going raw, I used to start cooking on Sunday afternoon and make pretty much 3-4 days worth of lunches for my husband and myself. Now that I’m eating raw I’m not sure if that’s something that is still okay to do (i.e. does live food taste like cr*p if left to sit, the vitamins diminish, etc.)
With live food, is it better make things the night before? I’m sure it’s best to make it directly before eating, but I work outside the home so it’s not possible. As well, yesterday I made a carbonara sauce I found on this site and it rocked, but ate it today and…not so much. So I’m a little confused…
Any thoughts, suggestions, etc.???

Maybe it depends on what you are making? I make salads and wraps to get me through 3 days of work lunches, and I eat leftovers all the time. I’ll make a large batch of smoothies to keep in the fridge as well, although they don’t tend to last…
The way I see it, maybe it’s not ideal, but it keeps me from making poor food choices.
Flybaby, can you recommend any good airtight containers for things like juices?
has anyone used the “green bags”? i just got some yesterday and they are supposed to keep produce fresher longer.
