Today I eat raw... and then?

Hi! I am 21 yo and have just started eating raw foods.

Here is a brief history: Since 1. April – no meat

Since 1. May – no diary

Since 15. May – no wheat/bread

A few days ago I got interested in raw foodism. I am currently in a transition period trying to cook only for dinner.

This morning I had 500 g grapes for breakfast.

A few minutes ago I prepared the following launch I took from the recipes here: 1/2 cucumber, 3 tomates, 1 avocado, 2 cloves of garlic, lemon juice, cumin, a few leaves of rucola, basil and parsley. All these ingredients I mixed in a bowl and… ate it! Do you know what? It tasted great! I have never experienced such a lovely texture in foods! I could feel every vegetable and an overall exotic-sweet delicious taste in the same time! It felt great! It was the best meal I have had for so many years!

Many thanks for this recipe! Now I feel much better and encouraged to further read about raw foods!

In the future, I will reduce intake to 1/2 avocado, since a whole one is obviously way too nutrient than say 2 tbsp. of olive oil? Can you point me to further recipes that are easy to prepare? This one took me only 10 minutes and I had a lot of fun slicing the vegetables and mixing everything in a bowl!

I would really like to start with something simple. This “salad” featured too much things and it is “professional” to my plain tastes.

Once again, thank you very much, this site, for providing such a great recipe! I really hope that I will find acceptance in this place!

Although I was carnivorous, now I’d really like to change that! Also, I weight only 55 kg with a height of 175 cm. This is considered underweight. I need to quickly gain some kilos if I am going to feel really comfortable! Again, I will appreciate any help you provide me!

Best regards!
