Hi! I introduced myself over in the introductions. So I’m here now cuz I have a n00b question.
I’m flat broke. I have one item for raw foodists, and that’s a food processor. And I don’t think I have all the parts to it. It works, but…. okay, anyway. I don’t have a juicer, I don’t have a dehydrator, or any of the items I’m assuming would be quite necessary to accomplish going raw in the way I’d like to.
I’m pretty distractable, so I’ve looked for information on the best and easiest way to transition into raw foods. I’ve been vegan for a long time, so that’s definitely not the issue. But I just don’t exactly know how, or what to eat, when I don’t have the amenities to make all the awesome recipes i keep seeing.
so what is the best way for a poor ol’ girl like myself to go raw?

You can buy sunflower seeds in bulk and they’re inexpensive.
I agree with eating simple, and try buying from farmer’s markets, or the reduced produce sections. Also, grow your own sprouts! Mung beans are super easy to sprout, and digest, and way cheap. I add them to almost everything I eat. Blend them into smoothies, eat them with blueberries and honey and cinnamon (my favourite) or throw them into a light miso soup broth.
MMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm sprouts. All you need is a mason jar, cheese cloth, or a strainer/collander. Sprouts are where it’s at for cheap raw food power!

thank you guys so much for all the advice. i did check out the recipe section and narrowed it down pretty well, and i even made a squash dish yesterday!!
