Rawsomely Vegan Cookbook Review

Raw and Vegan are some pretty big food buzz words. In this book, Mike Snyder shares over 300 recipes that fit both category.

The book is thick and hardback. While each recipe does not have a picture, it does had a nice set of colorful and mouthwatering pictures in the center for you to reference.

I really like the beginning of the book that tells you things you might need in your kitchen to make the recipes in the book. This is super helpful because sometimes you are surprised to see a cookbook author assumed you use a food dehydrator on a regular basis, if in fact you don’t, you will have trouble following the recipe exactly.

I also like the section that breaks down different foods and their importance in raw and vegan styles of eating.

The recipes are great too because they offer lots of new combinations as well ways to make some of your favorite meals raw and vegan.
