Raw Food Questions
We are quickly approaching the end of the year. With the holiday festivities upon us, it is easy to get carried away in the moment. I love the moment but I also have to do some planning around here. You are going to be seeing some great changes in the blog around the first of the year. The store I have been promising will be open and we are going to be offering our first E Book on raw food. There will also be sections on sustainable and green living. The food will always stay front and center, but I want to be able to offer you more!
That said, I need to hear from you. I would love to hear what you would like to see on the blog. What questions do you have about raw food and how can we expand this blog to best serve you? Please let me know in the comment section or if you feel like it you can always drop me an email at Susan@Rawmazing.com. I would love to hear from everyone that stops by. So, if you could please take a minute out of your busy day to let me know what you need and want, I would appreciate it!

Happy BeLated Birthday! Have been enjoying your site and appreciate the good, and valuable info for a newbie like me. though I am not 100% raw, I am trying to incorporate more raw foods into my diet.

hello there –
the thing i appreciate the most about the site is the recipes with their photos – especially the original ones, that are very creative, and also the ones that are zero-to-low nut containing.
i bet it is a lot of work to come up with original recipes of this standard and quality all the time – so my suggestion is that you open up the blog a bit – for recipes that are from other people as well – give a submission form – and guidelines for writing and photos – so really this will remain a super high quality site and not just another recipe site with ordinary recipes.
you can also open it up to high quality articles, restaurant reviews – but as said, keep it high, keep it focused.
thanks

Susan,
This is one of my top favorite places to go on the internet–I love it just as it is. You rule! My only suggestion is to do a glossy hard bound cookbook featuring all your spectacular photos and recipes in print. You make a wonderful and heartfelt contribution to the raw food world. Much support.

The best thing to me is the photos. You are a wonderful artist. I love the recipes but have trouble with all the prep and pre planning. Is that just something we have to deal with? It stops me from trying things – having to start 2 days in advance. I guess its just a paradigm shift and I’m not shifted yet!! I am only 80%ish raw and would love to also see healthy cooked vegan recipes if that is part of your philosophy. I think you did a piece on quinoa a while ago(if I remember correctly). Again, I love this site for its visual appeal.

I am strictly raw at this point. We will see what the future brings. As to the prep…I actually spend MUCH less time “cooking” than I used to. It is just a mental shift. You have to lose the I need it immediately thoughts. I am working on a planner that should help. Look for it in January!

I love your site as it is – love the recipes especially.
I like Beth’s comments about how to eat raw on weekday worknights. My husband and I default to salad…every. single. night. It has gotten really really old. Any ideas for things that two working people could whip up at night would be amazing.
Thanks!

Is there any advice you can offer on planning for a week of meals for a family of raw foodists? I’m having trouble with that transition. I know there’s potentially a lot of time to invest in the dehydrating process and that’s what’s a hurdle for me. How do you alternate smoothies vs other meals? What do you do for your kids’ lunches to bring to school?
