They are soft, and creamy and don't have a lot of taste which lends nicely to desserts. There are quite a few desserts that don't have them. You might want to try them if you have concerns.

I've heard from other raw foodists that they are fungus forming in the body? Any info on that? Susan, is there another nut I can use in this recipe for the dressing instead of cashews?

I knew that all broccoli might be a digestive problem for a few of us, so I "thinned it out" with some other sturdy vegetables, namely celery and jicama. I ran out of enough raisins, so I threw in some currants, and being short a lemon, added a dash of vinegar, I think it was balsalmic - not raw, but I'm not a purist. Next time I think I might cut down on the agave because for my palette it was just a touch too sweet, but I think for all the other guests it was spot-on, and so much like the "traditional" mayo-laden broccoli salad without the ill feeling afterward. Oh - and here's a good tip for a bacon flavor substitute with the sunflower seeds - we have this great raw cafe and food co-op in the basement of the Detroit Zen Center monestary, and on my last visit I picked up a bag of their sprouted, dehydrated, spiced sunflower seeds, so I used those instead of plain raw. I'm not sure what the spice mix was, but it was a good stand-in for bacon because some of that saltier, heartier flavor stood up in the dish, vs. being more just texture. I'll definitely make this one again. Thanks for the recipe!! :) Just wanted to say I made this for Christmas dinner today and everyone loved it.

I'm going to try this out, though perhaps with olive oil based mayo since I don't have a bunch of cashews. Wow, this looks fantastic!

You just have one idea after another! Thank you! Made your sweet potatoes last week. With the chipotle mayo. Awesome! Then tried your corn chip recipe with some guac and salsa. Wonderful! Even my non raw food family loved it. Bye the bye took some of my left over fries and cooked them up for the nonraw kiddos. They gobbled them up and begged for more. I tasted them and the flavor the marinade gave them made them out of this world. Looking forward to more classes:) Looking forward to doing some soaking too! Absolutely trying this one tomorrow.
