Raw Vegan Recipes for Dawn's Cooking Show

[elijahstrust]

I have a host who wants raw vegan recipes for her cooking show. Any ideas? From what I understand there can be no dairy/cheese/eggs; obviously no meat; and if cooked can't be cooked over 118 degrees F. I have supplied the Tropical Fruit Salsa and Confetti Salsa recipes and an Artichoke Salsa...and the Sweet Potato Tagine with Pine Nut Couscous. Does anyone else have any other ideas or tips to share? This is new to me so I'm a little nervous and don't want to mess it up serving wrong foods.

Thanks,
Dawn

Personally, I don't think someone with such a strict diet should be dictating what everyone else will be eating, and she shouldn't expect you to even have any idea how to cater to her diet. Raw AND Vegan? Gheesh....seriously, that's not a COOKING show.


Sorry - mini rant there....

Becky, I am glad you said it - 'cause I was thinking the SAME thing!
We are not there to be a personal chef - imo.



Why don't you demo all of our various cutting tools to chop, slice and cut up raw veggies?

At a cluster meeting we were shown a demo using raw potatoes - and the director showed off tons of products! I am sure there must be thread on here somewhere on that!

If the host wants to serve specific recipes, she is free to make them.

OK, I found some files in the Files section.

Search AmazingPotato
Search Cucumber and look at the Cucumber Lime demo document

You are certainly adhering to the host's requirements - and you could show off a bunch of products.

Not to mention what you could show with onions and garlic - both really cheap.

Or, of course, your suggestion of the salsa was perfect.

Good luck!

Echo Kam!

Demo the tools on raw veggies! Highlight the Mandoline, the food processor, the new grater, peelers, wedgers, etc..

How familiar is the hostess with the tools? Ask what SHE uses and what recipes she likes.

How about the Asian Cobb Salad without the chicken? I always do it without the chicken anyway....

Actually the host wasn't asking for herself because that is not her diet, but for the benefit of her guests. I do not have ANY problem "catering" to my hosts as I consider this to be a service. And it opens up the market to show that our tools can be used no matter what your diet preferences/needs are. I was just looking for recipe ideas in case anyone here also followed this type of diet or had done them for any of their hosts. To those of you who offered recommendations, thank you ...

What about doing a garnishes show? Or a veggie tray. I have no idea - we're confirmed meatatarians. Are all of her guests also into this?
