Published by PETA Staff.

Raw food: It’s the craze that’s sweeping the nation. Why? Because raw food is healthy, yummy, and, yes, even a little bit sexy. Eating certain foods raw helps preserve their vitamins and antioxidants, and preparing raw vegan recipes can also be fast and simple. So here are 14 recipes that will take no time at all to give your body that raw power it loves.

1. Raw-vocado Toast

Starring avocado, an herb-cashew spread, and sesame seeds on a Wrawp, this recipe is heaven-sent, if you ask us.

2. Raw Carrot Coriander Rolls

You can make raw “rice” by pulsing nuts, parsnips, cauliflower, or, in this case, carrots, in a food processor.

Frozen bananas blended with coconut water, cinnamon, and dates, then sprinkled with blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries. Magically delicious!

5. Raw Vegan Zucchini Marinara Pasta

If you want to get serious about eating raw, invest in a handy vegetable spiralizer. But if you don’t have one (yet), don’t fret. This sun-dried tomato sauce can also be served with cooked pasta.
