In this gorgeous salad recipe the creamy garlic herbed yogurt sauce is the perfect accompaniment to the juicy, light ribbons of fresh vegetables. Try using the dressing as a yummy tip too!

Follow Sarafae's steps to create a marinated, tender and softened raw broccoli dish with a creamy, tangy mustard sauce. Broccoli is loaded with valuable nutrients such as vitamin C, Vitamin K, zinc, selenium, and a compound called glucoraphanin which our bodies turn into sulforaphane. This compound acts as an antioxidant and is an especially powerful skin cell protector. Broccoli can be a bit of a challenge to eat raw as it is fibrous and for some hard to digest properly. Marinating and softening your broccoli first will enable you to enjoy it raw with all its incredible nutrition in tact!

The waffle base is a simple mixture of freshly ground flax, pecans, and soaked buckwheat groats. A perfect fusion of decadence and healthy nutrition!

Chocolate covered pecan turtles have been around since the 30's when a major candy company trademarked them and started producing them en masse. In this recipe the only sweeteners you'll find are naturally sweet dates and clear, raw unprocessed agave.

You can either completely submerge your turtles in the chocolate dipping sauce or just add a dolup to the top for a stacked effect. These raw chocolate pecan turtles are sure to impress!

We all have those memories of eating cookie batter straight out of the bowl before Mom could even get it in the oven.

Melted coconut butter and raw chocolate combine with raw oats, smooth jungle peanut butter, and ribbons of maple or agave in this recipe that will surely satisfy any desire for sweet cookie dough.

This salad has a delightful crunch and kick from fresh purple cabbage and onion paired with sweet succulent pears, and crisp juicy celery.
