Everyday Raw is an exciting new cookbook that will introduce the benefits and pleasure of eating healthful food that is organic, fresh and good for you! Preparing and eating raw food does not mean bland, whether it is a smoothie, a salad, or a mid-morning snack, you will love the tantalizing and delicious recipes included here. Filled with luscious photography, Chef Matthew Kenney has been preparing raw food for years and offers up a variety of delectable recipes including-Chocolate-Cherry Smoothie, Red-Chile Pineapple Dipping Sauce, Sesame Cashew Dumplings, Portobello Fajitas, and a Lemon Macaroon Cheesecake Tartlet that will leave you wondering why you haven't started eating raw food sooner!
Update! Ice Cream Cone recipe directions (pg 134):
Blend all ingredients in Vita-Mix until smooth. Spread thinly into 5 to 6-inch rounds on dehydrator Teflex sheets. Dehydrate 5 or 6 hours until dry but very pliable. Remove from Teflex sheets and shape each round into cones; press edges together. If needed, use paper clips to secure the edges. Place cones on dehydrator screens and dehydrate for 24 more hours until crisp.

Summary: Great recipes
Comment: But maybe not for the novice. Or for those looking for a bunch of quick recipes. I like the food combinations he has and I find myself going to this often. It does require some prep work (the usual soaking and dehydrating) but I find it worth the effort. I really like the portobello 'sausage' recipe and it withstood my modifications ;) I'm not a big fan of coconut oil so I tend to substitute/partially sub avocado and they still work out well. The key lime tart (I used avocado mostly) is tooooo yummy. Especially with the 'candied' cashew crust. mmmm

Summary: NOT the EVERYDAY raw - TOO TIME CONSUMING
Comment: The title certainly implies that the recipes contained within are reasonable and can be made "everyday" in a fair amount of time. NOT SO!!!!- The title is true misrepresentation!!!
The recipes are extremely time consuming and in a perfect world when you have nothing else to do, I would LOVE to try these. However, being a working woman with a family to support and feed, I don't have mountains of available time. I have found 2 subsequent books however, that provide for EVERYDAY recipes, they are not overwhelming and are a good start to getting your family eating RAW. I would not suggest purchasing this book until you have LOTS of time and money to purchase a dehydrator and a Vitamix machine among other items.

Summary: Great pictures, great ideas
Comment: I am not on a raw foods diet, nor do I wish to be. It is something I had experimented with in college and found it didn't agree with me. However, I still eat raw foods (in addition to cooked) and I was struck by the great ideas and pictures found in this book. There are certainly a lot of creatively inspiring ideas in here, for cooks of all seasons.

Summary: Gorgeous photos entice you to try raw cuisine
Comment: Not the easiest to prepare (Vitamix and dehydrator are not the most commonly stocked appliances and many ingredients require special market trips) but these gorgeous photos and delicious recipes will incent you to try at least a few raw recipes.
