The solution? Turn off the stove and EAT IT RAW! At least that's the route we decided to take in a shameless attempt to impress the daylights out of our celebrity vegan friends Harold and Linda Brown and Dr. Kerrie Saunders when they dropped in for a weekend visit earlier this month. We had hoped to do a public event, but schedules were tight, so there wasn't time to do much of anything but eat and run. Here are some of the highlights:

Raw Green Gazpacho

Raw Sun Burgers with Mini "Krab" Cakes

(Almost) Raw Spring Rolls

Raw Fettucini Alfredo

Raw Coconut Peppermint Pattie
