• Always a green smoothie. The usual concoction is: frozen banana, kiwi, spinich, fruit juice and a pear. (Or maybe a few frozen berries thrown in too.) I love green smoothies - and often bolt them down a little too quick!

• RawGreensForMe, I love chia seeds, you can make some tasty 'puddings' with them. My current fav is this: Blend the following ingredients.... Small handful of nuts (any kind is fine but hazelnuts work well) Couple of dates Tsp carab powder 3/4 cup fi…

• It's great hearing about everyone else's experiences/situations. I live with a non-raw, steak loving bf and he's been pretty great accepting my move to high raw. I eat raw all day and then tend to share a cooked vegetarian (or vegan) meal with him i…

• "How are you going to stick to that raw lifestyle for your whole life?" For someone like myself who is relatively new to this whole thing, I have found this question pop up in my own mind from time to time. But it's like a lot of things - if you try…

• Hi Dovesinna, my bf has a very similar attitude to your husband. I am mostly raw (I do eat some cooked vegan dinners) and when I first started down this path, I think he thought it was just a fad I was into. After a months of looking bemused when I …

• I recently found a recipe in 'Eat Smart Eat Raw' by Kate Wood called Tomato Crisps, which basically involves whizzing up loads of fresh tomatoes in a food processor (you can add herbs too if you like), then pouring out a thin layer in the dehydrator…

• I feel your pain Winona, I love my bloke to bits but find it v hard when I'm all excited about a new raw recipe I've made and he barely even takes notice. I'll offer some to him but he'll rarely try it. I love my food and enjoy being in the kitchen …

• I am having problems with this too at the moment. I am mostly raw but often have a partly cooked meal for dinner. Later on in the evening I find myself drawn back to the kitchen and usually end up with a couple of handfuls of dried fruit to get a sw…

• After deliberating for months over what type of spiralizer to buy, I've just gone and ordered a julienne peeler off eBay for a couple of quid - bargin! Hopefully this will do the trick.

• Oh yes, Ani Pyo's book is great too. I got given Raw by Juliano as a present and although it's beautiful to look through, I honestly cannot imagine making anything from there. (Other than maybe a couple of the simple dips) Almost every recipe needs …

• I have a few RAW books and whilst they are all great in different ways, I've found 'Raw Food Made Easy For 1 or 2 People' by Jennifer Cornbleet really helpful as a I'm quite new to raw and it's only me I'm 'cooking' for. One thing I really like is t…

• Hi Strawberry, that would work, although the one's I had in mind are more like proper large bottles but I can't find them on their website. I don't think they show everything on their website, but if I find it, I'll let you know.

• Hi Strawberry, I think Ikea do flip top glass bottles, which would be useful for storing juice. I bet they'd be pretty cheap too. I keep meaning to get some myself but have to sum up enough energy to make it through the maze of a place!

• It's so interesting reading everyone's own experiences. I am high raw and the cooked food I eat is still v healthy by SAD standards. Last weekend I went over to a friends house for the evening. To cut a long story short, I ended up eating loads of t…

• I agree totally with Zoe. I quit smoking after reading Allen Carr's book a few years back. I felt amazingly happy afterwards and drove my smoker bf mad raving on about how amazing Allen Carr is. Sadly, I think he died last year (from Cancer), but th…

• Thanks Joyce, my man also has green smoothie for b'fast and does occasionally taste my food but that's a great idea about him picking something from the 'cook' books. I may have to try that. :-)

• I have to admit I'm a little envious of those of you who have raw partners and can share a totally raw meal together. I love my man to bits and I know it's possible to share a cosy meal for two when you're eating different things but it would be so …

• Yeah, apparently you can get the same effect putting your oven on it's lowest setting and leaving the door open. I haven't tried it myself tho so can't say anymore really.

• Hi sungem827, welcome along and good luck on your raw journey. I am not an expert or anything and not 100% but my advice would be to take things slowly to start with and keep an open mind. Green smoothies are a great place to start and indulge in lo…
