If you're eating vegan, don't be shy to try all kinds of raw vegan recipes. Some fruits and veggies actually lose their nutrients if they are cooked, so when you're eating them as-is, you maximize on vitamins, minerals, protein, fat and carbs.

These delicious recipes are raw, vegan, and include foods like pasta and brownies, so that you aren't resigned to eating only salads for the rest of your life (even though these winter salads are uh-maze-ing). Keep reading for recipes you'll definitely want to add to your meal plan.

Review:

the cashew cream cheese was incredible and one of my favorite parts of making the Raw Beet Ravioli With Vegan cream cheese. I had only ever made beet hummas but they have this sweetness to them that are perfect for ravioli. Loved this recipe and will make again
