Summary: great for a novice raw foodie
Comment: This cookbook is pretty simple, but I gave it four stars because I think it's a superb raw food book for beginners.
It was one of the first raw cook books I ever purchased, and it made the preparation of raw dishes seem less foreign. However, I am an accomplished chef, so I did find many of the recipes to be way too easy. Even if you are new to raw food, if you have a lot of cooking experience you might want to find something a little more challenging.

Summary: Easy, but
Comment: Her recipes are easy but a lot are very simple or start out like her ar the ingredients oh but 1 or 2 of the ingredients are another recipe in the book so now go find this one and also make that. It would be easier if she did not break them up as much.

Summary: The perfect start to a raw lifestyle
Comment: This book was definitely made for me -- a novice raw food enthusiast flying solo and not investing in expensive raw accoutrements like a VitaMix and a dehydrator. Cornbleet walks you through the most obvious preparations and activities, from how long to soak your nuts to how to mince onions. I really appreciated the simplicity of this book, and everything I've made so far is delicious. I'm especially hooked on the zucchini pasta with either marinara or mock peanut sauce, the chocolate mousse, and the sun-dried tomato tapenade. These recipes are easy to modify to your liking, especially once you get more confident in your raw ways, and it's wonderful (in my experience) to be able to live by the same basic ingredients each week. Whether you're interested in going fully raw, living by the general guideline of 80% raw, 20% cooked, or simply want to integrate more raw foods into your diet, this is the perfect introduction to a cleaner, clearer, non-dogmatic and beautifully simplified way to eat.

Summary: A Wonderful Introduction to Raw Foods
Comment: I honestly can't find anything wrong with Jennifer's book except for perhaps the fact that she hasn't finished her dessert book which is supposed to come out next. I found that from getting needed supplies, to how to soak nuts/fruits, she's covered pretty much everything. I've tried several of her recipes and found them to be easy and very tasteful. Many raw books have recipes which call for items I've never heard of or are hard for a newbie to procure. That was not a problem for me with this book. Jennifer also does a good job of offering options/alternatives in a recipe, which I found to be very helpful.

Summary: A dare gone wrong
Comment: Okay, I'm a jerk - I admit it. I went 30 days eating only raw food to give me something to complain about in a blog. I did absolutely no preparation prior, and the night before starting, I picked up this book. I expected disaster - I wanted disaster - disaster makes for colorful blogging. What I got instead was 30 days of great food. This book is easy, it's accessible to uncooperative, it didn't require a bunch of specialized tools (a food processor is required), and the food is actually good. The raw marinara sauce is unbelievably good.
I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone - raw foodist or not. You'll actually use this one.
