Raw, cooked, and gluten-free meals from the founder of the national award-winning healthy-snack company Two Moms in the Raw Within just a few days, Shari Leidich, a mother of three,and#160;went from working out daily and hiking in the nearby Rocky Mountains to beingand#160;barely ableand#160;to hold a pen. The diagnosis: MS. Gradually, thanks to a diet rich in raw foods,and#160;she returned to her former energetic self. For the long term, though, she knew sheand#160;had to create meals that she would find satisfyingand#160;and that her husband and threeand#160;children would love as well. And they had to be quick and easy.
Many of the 130-plus dishes, like Brunchy Poached Eggs on Spinach with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce, or Plum and Tatsoi Salad, are riots of color. Most can be on the table before the kids can even complain theyand#39;re hungry. Indulgent snacks like Creamy Olive and Artichoke Dipand#160;and Butternut-Lemongrass Soupand#160;satisfy cravings, and chicken and fishandmdash;Single-Skillet Chicken Puttanesca, Chard-Wrapped Mahi-Mahiandmdash;come bolsteredand#160;with plenty of raw produce and grains. Desserts ditch processed sugar in favor of natural sweeteners and power nutrients.
The story of a quest for healing, Two Moms in the Raw is a keep-it-real guide to eating well for anyone who wants to get back on track, enjoy greater vitality, reduce stress, and achieve their best health.

Going Raw promises the basics (kitchen gear, pantry ingredients, how to plan your grocery shopping and menus, prep and storage techniques) and delivers delicious, simple recipes for the starter raw foodist.
