What is your staple food after going raw?

Hi,

I am new here. I just took on vegan eating for a month and I feel great. I recently discover raw diet and really want to try it.

I am wondering for you guys doing majority raw, what is your staple food?

Currently, my staple food is cooked sprouted brown rice. I eat that at lunch and dinner with raw or cooked vegetables. I do eat what I consider a large amount of vegetables, but I always eat some brown rice to ground me. Without it, I don’t feel full enough. We are dealing with underweight issue here.

If I go raw, the brown rice has to go. I’ve read some books about raw food and this forum. It seems to me a lot of people on raw rely on either lots of (sweet) fruit or fatty food(avocado, nuts, seed) for main calories sources. So I am hesitate, is lots of nuts, seeds, avocado more healthier than my cooked brown rice?

Thanks.

Jijie

    My staples are lots of salads with baby greens, and yummy homemade dressings… and sunflower seeds, avocados, bananas, pears, and apples…etc.

    Kale, spinach and apples. Also sprouted wild rice, cucumbers and bananas. Eating more greens (blending them right now because I have digestion problems) made all the difference in the world.
