Here is another page dedicated to raw diet recipes for your enjoyment. To begin this page, I'd like to tell you about something that we did recently.
Jaye was doing a story for work on the raw food diet (he works for a newspaper and website doing online video content) and as part of the story he had to prepare a three course meal for Chef Uwe Michael, who is Director of Kitchens at the Radisson Blu Hotel here in Dubai, and he is also a World Association of Chefs judge.
Well, Chef Uwe loved the food. He even called over a fellow chef to taste, saying that they should keep quiet about it being raw vegan food and see what the other chef said.
Needless to say, the other chef loved the food too, and only after he had expressed his full approval of the dishes, was he told that it was raw vegan!

Blend together in a blender until smooth and serve.

Raw Diet Recipes: Beetroot Zucchini Pasta With Tomato Salsa and Cashew Basil Cream
Pasta Ingredients:
1x Zucchini peeled
1x Beetroot peeled
Tomato Salsa Ingredients:
2x Tomatoes
2x Red bell peppers
2x Celery stalks
10x Sundried tomatoes (dry, no oil)
4x medjool dates
Cashew Basil Cream Ingredients:
1x cup cashew nuts (raw, unsalted)
1x lime, peeled
1x cup fresh basil
1x Celery Stalk
40ml fresh water
Method:
Using a spiralizer, put the zucchini and the beetroot through to make pasta spirals.
If you don't have a spiralizer, you can also just use a potato peeler and peel the zucchini and beetroot into thin strips.
Blend sauce ingredients into a smooth tomato salsa sauce and pour over the pasta.
Blend the cashew cream ingredients into a smooth cream and spoon on top of the sauce.
Garnish with some celery, lettuce and cherry tomatoes.
The recipe as mentioned above will leave you with left over cashew basil cream - just use this as a salad dressing over the following few days. It keeps in the fridge very well for a few days.
