I got a request for some vegetarian recipes so here a few I’ve posted in the past and LOVE and a new one that is becoming staple around here!
1. I found this Raw Vegan Pate recipe and was shocked at how tasty and flavorful it was. I love this book Raw Foods on a Budget by Brandi Rollins that a friend lent me . It has been very fun to play around with totally raw recipes! If you can do grains, you can use it on a sandwich as a chicken or egg salad substitute, or if you’re a stricter vegetarian or vegan can serve it with raw veggies and eat it more like a hearty dip!
