This is from my x-post in /r/vegan. It goes a bit into explaining each dish...
The food that you see here was made during a raw foods prep class I taught a couple of days ago. This time, the theme was Thanksgiving. I'll describe each of these dishes to a certain extent, but forgive me if I am not ultra-specific, as I am currently in the process of putting together a book.

I just got this book in the mail over the summer and it's been fantastic. I eat chia pudding with cinnamon, agave, and raspberries for breakfast almost every day now.
I also got started on the raw food thing with Natalia Rose's books. They are a little new-agey but most of the recipes are good, and she does an excellent job of describing raw food pairings, balancing out your acid intake, etc (sounds crazy but makes sense when you read it).
Checking out a raw food restaurant can also give a ton of ideas. In Austin we have Beets Cafe and Casa De Luz (not all raw but close).

This blog, My New Roots, is also fantastic, and this morning she posted this recipe for "rawvioli" which I printed and plan to make.
Raw eating can actually be a little harder because you have to prep everything - no box foods being dumped into pots. But I promise it's worth it. I don't do all raw, but I was already vegetarian, and learning how to incorporate more raw foods into my diet has made me feel a hundred times better - less anxiety, better skin, weight maintenance, etc.
Miketheamazing is right about a juice and good blender. I don't have a dehydrator yet but once I acquire one, raw will become even better.
Nice, thank you! I was looking at that one, I'm between the Kyocera and this one, which is slightly cheaper and has excellent reviews. Glad to know it's not too difficult to find a good one out there!
Apologies! I've added a link in the post. I use the Paderno World Cuisine spiralizer, only $35 on Amazon :) I love it! I also made carrot noodles with it the other day, which were great as well.

I don't have a lot of experience with dates, but they were delicious. I didn't eat them fast enough and fear they are starting to go bad. I have kept them in the refrigerator and ate about 6 a day(I am trying to lose weight, so I can't binge out on them). I am currently drying the remaining ones in hope that it preserves them a little longer.
I know! My running has improved. I went on a fast paced 5k the other day and PRed. I just keep getting stronger, faster, and recovery is an hourly thing rather than a daily thing. Good work to you my friend!
I just started raw myself a few months ago. There are two basic routes you can pursue: high fat or low fat. If you go high fat, you'll eat a lot of raw nuts and avocados, plus fruits and veggies. If you go low fat, you'll eat a LOT of fruit. Bananas are the cheapest.
Whichever route you choose, you may find benefit in using a site/app to track your macronutrient calories; I use cronometer.com but there are many others. It is really easy to under-eat when you're going raw, especially the high-carb route.
I'm on high carb, aiming for 2000-2800 calories a day. It's been quite a struggle to get even 2000 most days; I often am around 1600. The macronutrient ratio I'm aiming for is 80/10/10 (carb, fat, protein).
An average day's consumption might be:
Many high carb raw people say you need more like 3000+ calories. I am working my way toward trying that but I've found it difficult. They say at the beginning it's best to let yourself move gradually toward that as the volume of fruit you need to eat is huge. Cooked and high fat foods are much more calorically dense.
I'm fairly new to Reddit so I just found this post. I hope I'm not too late! I love the book RAWvolution by Matt Amsden. The pictures are beautiful and the recipes are absolutely amazing. I've not yet made something I haven't liked.
I have lots of other uncook books that I can recommend but they don't have any pictures.
Hope that helped!
Absolutely the first thing you should do is get the the following books and read them cover to cover. I wish I did before my first juice fast.

good luck!
Ironically enough, commercially sold rolled oats (and even most oat groats) are almost always heat treated and are almost impossible to find raw. If not steam treated or pressure cooked, freshly rolled oats begin to rancidify within hours. If you want to try truly raw oatmeal, your best bet is to track down some truly raw, sproutable oats, soak and sprout the groats, and run them through a mill.
Recipe by Navitas Naturals. Follow the link or look at my substitutions in case you don't have one of the ingredients or are making one serving.
1 Cup Water
1 Tbsp Mesquite Powder (Navitas discontinued theirs, and although I have never tried it, I have found Sunfood is a great brand equal in taste and quality).
3 Tbsp Cacao powder. (Instead of nibs. I don't usually keep these around anyway since most of my raw baking requires Cacao powder).
2 ice cubes
2 TBSP Chocolate Protein Powder (or any whey and casein-free option). I used Healthforce Nutritionals Warrior Food Extreme Chocolate Plus.
1½ Bananas (peeled and chopped). I used one banana, plus half of a frozen one to thicken and make the smoothie extra cold.
Sprinkle of cinnamon
This morning I made this as my breakfast. I wanted something different from my usual green smoothie and mesquite was begging to be used.
The top layer was frothy like a latte and the cinnamon complemented the chocolate so well. The smoothie/shake kept me full for quite a while! This may also make a decent pre/post workout smoothie, as Mesquite powder is a decent source of protein, calcium, and iron, essential for the recovery of muscles. Also, in abundance of zinc, why not support the health of your memory, skin, and eyes at the same time?
