The recipes themselves are fascinatingly inventive: who would have thought, for example, that you could eat raw burgers and biscuits, pasta and pies? In clear and detailed text, Kate gives instructions for all these and more. Many recipes require specialist equipment such as a dehydrator, but there is plenty to attract the novice as well.

Kate's message seems to be that eating raw foods can be easy and fun with the help of this book. She says that eating even one raw meal a day can make a tremendous difference to your well being, and with Eat Smart, Eat Raw on your kitchen shelf it shouldn't be a challenge.
