A diet that consists solely of raw food can be intimidating and a little jarring if you're not used to it. But despite its associations with body "cleanses" and hippy-dippy living, it's really a welcomed change from the overly-cooked, overly-fussed with food many of us are used to.
This month, Domino Magazine features a days' worth of raw food recipes (minus dinner) that are heavy on taste and light on pretension.
The menu?
Breakfast: Blueprint Pudding atop Manna bread and adorned with fresh berries
Lunch: Nori Lettuce Wraps spiced up with pickled ginger, garlic and minced jalapeno
Snacks: Crudites with Sesame Dip and a luscious Chocolate Mousse
These dishes are simple and satisfying, whether you try them for a day or make them a permanent part of your diet.
Cakes so amazing they'd be hard to cut into
Fruit juice: An invitation to diabetes?
Morbid thoughts? Have a cookie

The whole raw food thing never appealed to me, but I did see some yummy stuff on No Reservations in Jamaica last night. Not sure what it was... some greens and grains maybe? That piqued my curiosity more than these... I think I'd feel I was sacrificing with these rather than eating something great that just happened to be raw. And I think maybe I'm a nori purist.
