This is a great book!
It shipped fast and I am loving this book. I'm a newbie in this area and this book has so many great recipes & the ingredients are easy to find and use. I "drink' a lot of my food and I've enjoyed everything I've tried so far. The book is filled with lots of little details about the what's and why's behind the ingredients which makes it informative and more than just another recipe book. Would highly recommend adding it to anyone's recipe library!

Great all around book
I am new to raw cooking and this book was a wonderful book that explained how to be successful from the start. If you have been raw for a while I can see where this may not be as beneficial for you to read but for me it was the best book I could have started with!

Rawlicious; Delicious Raw Recipes for Radiant Health
Just added this to my collect of raw food books. The first recipe I tried was the Lentil Burgers on page 180 loved them so much I made them the next week also. I love sprouted lentils and this was a great way to enjoy them more!

Good Juice Recipes!
To make the most of this recipe book you need a few things: a juicer, a Vitamix blender , a food processor, a mandolin, coffee grinder, nut milk bag and a dehydrator. If you don't have these items you won't be able to make some of the recipes. The recipe I liked the most from this cookbook is called "Fruity Sunrise." It is a blend of pineapple, orange, strawberries and a wedge of lemon. I've put lemon juice in fruit juices before but realized that it is better to put a wedge through the juicer as it extracts some of the lemon zest and therefore tastes better.If you are new to raw foods this book has a good introduction. It explains what cooking does to food and why you should consider eating more raw foods. According to this book eating raw foods will make your body stronger and you will get sick less and maybe even lose weight.The authors of this book grow a lot of their own foods - you can tell from all the pictures. They also give detailed instructions for sprouting.Now from personal experience I'd advise you not to make the "Radically Radish" drink. I personally can not handle anything with radishes in it, it won't stay down long as it is much too spicy.To make some of the smoothies in this book you will probably have to order a few items like camu camu berry powder, spirulina, buchu powder, hemp oil, cacao nibs and goji berries. Or you might find these things at your local health food store.The chapter on nut milks will interest anyone who is avoiding dairy. This chapter also has instructions for making nut butters. This is why you need a good blender. Who knew you could also make nut cheeses? The chapter on soups is also interesting and includes recipes for broccoli and leek soup, butternut soup with carrots and ginger and wild mushroom soup. But don't go foraging for mushrooms yourself unless you really know what you are doing. The same goes for the salad chapter. Knowing which flowers are edible is essential. There is a list of edible flowers in this book which might encourage you to grow your own.Mmmm, the snack chapter talks about dipping dried figs in nut butter. Something I still haven't tried. There is also a recipe for raw cookies. Now the recipe I really want to try is the Mango-Gooseberry Cheesecake. It is made with a base of nuts and topped with passion fruit, raspberries and agave. It looks like I will have to buy a food processor after all.To end the book there is a chapter on chocolates which includes a recipe for medicinal chocolates. Then there is a chapter on hot drinks like chai and hot chocolate.Well this cookbook will probably appeal to the gourmet in you. The recipes in this book look so delicious but you need the equipment recommended to really make the foods presented.~The Rebecca Review

Beautiful book
This is a beautiful addition to my collection of raw food prep books. The photographs are lovely and the recipes looks simple with not a lot of complicated ingredients. I just received it today and can't wait to make some of the recipes, namely the mango/passion cheesecake.

Not so many recipes
If you are new to raw foods and need a good overview, this is a great book. But If you've been into raw foods for a while and just looking for more recipes and inspiration, this book doesn't have that much. While the recipes tend to be on the simpler side (not gourmet & time consuming) there are only a handful in each section.

Beautiful book
Rawlicious is a beautiful book WITH photographs, which I love! I have made a few things and they all turned out to be delicious. You won't be disappointed adding this to your "uncook" book collection.

Very inspiring!
I found this book informative, easy to read and motivating. The book is for everyone that wants to be healthy, not only those who are vegan or on a completely raw diet.

Not New!
Disappointed that I paid for a new book and it is clearly not new! There was an option for a used book but that’s not what I paid for.The book itself looks great though, lots of delicious recipes.
