Hey Everyone! My name is Lyra.

Hey guys, I'm new here, my name is Lyra.
I'm a raw food enthusiast, so my post's/threads won't so much be about cooking, but blending, freezing, slicing and dicing raw foods to create some hopefully extraordinary results!
I've already had a few experiments with raw kitchen work and have found that most of it is much simpler than you might think. Take for instance a recipe for a chocolate torte that I came across in a book somewhere, all you had to do was blend the ingredients for the base, then blend the ingredients for the topping, stick it in the freezer to set for an hour, and there we go! I might add that it was probably the best chocolate torte I have ever tasted in my entire life. I made it for my mothers birthday party, and I had to write out the recipe for at least 3 people.
Anyway, hope to have some good conversations with you all soon!

Welcome! I think there will be lots of people interested in raw foods here. One thing that puzzles me though is how chocolate torte is a raw food. I thought that the raw food diet didn't include anything processed by cooking in any way. Chocolate, I believe, is made from roasted beans.. I once tried to follow a raw food diet and it is quite difficult. You can't eat any bread or pastry for example. Its super healthy though!

Hi and welcome.

You will find I have posted one out two raw food recipes over in health nutrition and special diets or vegetarian and vegan because whilst I am not a raw foodie, I do include some aspects of it into my diet, as well as having a brother-in-law who is a raw foodie.

SNSSO.
