Thank you 💜 I know...raw food cuisine is completely different and requires much more planning and preparation time. And your palate has to get used to it. Cooked food is addictive, and so is gluten (Pasta,Pizza...)
But I like using Italian herbs in my crackers, for example... It takes a bit more creativity...I even make raw pizza...it's not the same obviously...but much more satisfying at the end.
From April until recently, I ate cooked potatoes almost every day, as well as chestnuts, sweet potatoes, and even, lately, vegetable curry with tofu. Next to salat and sporits and a ton of fruits...
But I noticed that I felt sluggish and not really satisfied. Now I'm back to a stricter raw food diet, and it's just so incredibly good for me. I have so much more energy, and the food keeps me full much longer without any fatigue afterward.
Maybe you'll give it a try one day? I'm happy to keep inspiring 🙏

It’s a pleasure, your dishes always look so delicious 😊 btw I tried some raw cuisine in the past and also used to go for my lunch break in a raw vegan restaurant close to the office where i was working in milan and i really loved their food… but i gotta admit i’m a huge lover of the italian kitchen and especially i’m a super huge giga lover of pasta, I can’t live without it! I use wholemeal pasta only but at lunch i must have it. I usually have a nice fresh mixed salad with seasonal veggie and seeds dressed with a bit of evo oil and apple vinegar or fresh lemon juice but after that i need my spaghetti/linguine/tagliatelle (vegan ones with no eggs but with added spirulina)… I also love to cook pasta 🍝 and often my friends call me to cook it for them because it is super tasty the way i cook it… i’m the master of pasta for my friends hehehe :) …in the end i can say i have a mixed raw-cooked approach to food, I like both worlds but would like to increase a bit the raw part for some things, without removing the cooked part. I also should eat more fruits, which i basically eat only in the morning… will see, for the next year i’ll try to accommodate these changes… let’s see what happens… your posts are very inspiring! 😉💪🏼🍝🥗🫐👌🏼🫶🏼🍀
