Hey guys!
Thanks for such a great response to my New Orleans post. I’m glad that some of you expressed interest in hearing Chloe’s take on pescatarian life in the Big Easy; with any luck, we’ve just inspired her to write a Choosing Raw VIP post
Yesterday, as we all know, was Raw Wednesday. I had asked you all to send me photos of the meals you made, and a bunch of you obliged with mouth-watering images of raw lunches, dinners, and snacks. Here they are, in all their glory:
Raw Spiralized zucchini noodles with diced raw veggies and homemade raw vegan Thai-Inspired Peanut sauce, courtesy of Averie:
A fruit and avocado breakfast platter and a raw carrot “cupcake” from Bambi:
A beautiful, simple salad with raw sunflower seeds, walnuts, and dried cranberries from my friend Iris:
A cauliflower salad from blog reader Aletheia:
A mouth-watering photo of a modified Pumpkin Pie in a Bowl soup from Kathryn:
And some zucchini guacanara from my friend Laura, along with a bonus picture of the raw pizzettes she made recently for a party:
Yum!
Elsewhere in the blogosphere, Kelly ate a honeycrisp apple (sure, Kelly, it counts!), and Whitney made an awesome collard burrito.
Did I miss you? Do you have some raw photos to share? Just send them to me for next Wednesday, or say a few words about your day in the comments section. I’ll be back tomorrow with a Question of the Week.

BEAUTIFUL raw creations from folks!! Awesome participation.
The raw cupcake looks incredible!!
Cupcake recipe, pretty please?
such a fun post!
I did have my green juice, does it count?
Everything looks so good. I have been having green smoothies every day! I am really enjoying them. This post is really inspiring. My husband thinks I am going crazy, but I am having fun trying new raw recipes!
omg that raw cupcake looks amazing!!! i really must start participating in raw wednesdays! i had raw corn on the cob?
My new favorite raw snack is Roma Tomatoes, sliced, with a little olive oil drizzled on top, with some fresh sea salt and cracked black pepper. It is so simple and so incredibly delicious. I had this with baby grape tomatoes once at a party and was obsessed.
Thanks Gena for featuring my food! If anyone wants the link for the peanut sauce, here it is http://www.loveveggiesandyoga.com/2009/10/raw-vegan-pasta-n-pesto-peanut-sauce.html
Hope it’s ok to post that, just trying to help anyone out who wants to make their own peanut sauce action
I hope you’re enjoying your trip and b/c of that shirt you wore yesterday, I ordered the pale blue one with the same saying. I hope it fits and that I ordered the right size b/c it’s too cute!

I was raw till my afternoon snack on Wednesday! Green juice throughout the morning, followed by an apple and then a go-pack of raw nuts and dried fruit. Broke the streak with oatmeal around 2pm but made sure to throw in some fresh ingredients – blueberries! Dyed my oatmeal a wonderful blood red color
Gena,
No, you didn’t miss me. I forgot again, and I don’t think I ate one single raw item yesterday. I’m writing Go Raw on next Wednesday in my planner right now!
P.S. Loved Chloe’s house. So much character.
Shoot, I’ll be out of town next Wednesday…October 28, raw for sure.
D’oh – I usually make much more impressive dishes for Raw Wednesday! This was a lazy day, though. Everyone else’s food looks so yummy!
Thanks for posting all of these up, Gena. They’re totally motivational!
