Hey everyone! HAPPY FRIDAY!
I’ve got a seriously amazing giveaway to kick off the weekend….
Remember this cookbook that I got (and have been experimenting with a little this week)??
I talked to Sarma, founder of One Lucky Duck and co-founder Pure Food and Wine, and she has graciously offered a Fitnessista reader a signed copy of her new cookbook!!!
This cookbook is outta control amazing. The recipes are easy to follow, don’t require a ton of obscure ingredients or fancy schmancy equipment and demonstrate that raw food doesn’t have to be complicated to be beautiful and delicious. It also includes a boatload of information on nutrition and the raw lifestyle, yet reads like an email from a good friend. I read the book in it’s entirety within 2 days.
It’s also a feast for the eyes with stunning photos…
Recipes for juices….
Salads, soups, snacks and impressive entrees….
Cocktails and desserts….
Are ya sold yet??? 😀
Here’s how you can get 2 chances to win this beautiful cookbook:
- Leave a comment stating why you’d like to win this cookbook and/or what you’d like to make first if you win
- Link back to this post on your blog and send me an email (fitnessista at gmail dot com) with the link to your post. If you don’t have a blog, no worries, just send me an email and I’ll get your extra entry in
I’ll post the winner at 8am EST on Monday, July 13th

I would love to win this cookbook because I'm trying to add more raw food to my diet. I'm dying to find a great raw breakfast- that's what I'd try first!
I would love to win the cookbook. I'm trying to eat more unprocessed fresh foods and I'm always looking for new ideas. I would love to try that chia pudding that you have been raving about!
I would love to win this cookbook. I have two raw food books and they are both rather complicated and you need dehydrators and stuff. Less complicated sounds lovely. I think I would try a salad first. I'm starting to love vegetable salads.
Dessert baby!! Mmmm looks yummy 🙂
mmm I've never actually made a raw meal! I would love to experiment making raw pizza!
Thank you so much for this amazing giveaway <3
Hi there! I just updated your giveaway in my blog http://healthybeachbum.blogspot.com/2009/07/casa-sweet-casa.html
thank you so much!!! 🙂
I am so curious about the whole "raw food" concept, that I'd love an easy-to-read cookbook to get started! 🙂
Um, I would make dessert first…of course!! 🙂
Hi. Wasn't I just saying in my post yesterday that I wanted to start introducing more raw foods? So, if there's anyway I can be "randomly" chosen to receive this book, it would be most appreciated.
Sincerely,
Andrea
p.s. – I would try anything that didn't have dates in it. I've already tried a bunch of raw date stuff, so I want to do something new!
OH I'd love to win!! I am interested in learning more about raw foods and also juicing!
This is so exciting! Since I started reading your blog a few months ago, I've become very interested eating raw, but didn't really know where to start. This cookbook would be a great start! I don't know for sure, but I think I'd start that vanilla chia pudding you made. It looks delicious and like an approachable start to raw food. Thanks!
I just found your blog and really enjoy seeing your food creations!
I would love to win this cookbook. I have just started reading about eating raw and am trying to incorporate more raw into my every day life.
First thing I would try is an entree. I think that is the hardest part of a meal to do raw.
I love trying new recipes and I've never made a raw meal before. It would be fun to try!
I would like to get an idea for raw meals aside from salads and this seems like a great way! Thanks for the give away!
I am just delving into the raw food world, thanks in large part to your blog, and I am loving it! I have loved everything I've made from Natalia Rose's books and I would love to try some new raw food recipes. This is an amazing giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity!
I need to learn how to eat/make more raw food…and I need to make whatever delicious dessert that is in the picture!!!
I've really wanted to experiment with more raw recipes and I would definitely try a dessert first!
I recently started looking into raw eating thinking about starting out 1 day a week. and this would be great. 🙂
I would love to win the cookbook! I am a a vegetarian, and I have LOVED reading about all y'all's experiences exploring the raw world!
I blogged and linked

I think this would be a cool book to have because I am pretty clueless when it comes to eating raw although I wouldn't mind giving some things a try. Dessert and lunch ideas intrigue me the most.
I've recently fallen in love with all of S&M's (hehehe) cookbooks and after browsing through this one at the book store last week, would LOVE to have my own copy. It's just too bad they've decided to markup up the price by a silly amount here in Canada. The exchange rate definitely doesn't translate to $50!
I would love the book and would make an entree. Not a dessert, but something for dinner to feed my family that is raw and awesome!
I would love to win this book as I am trying to venture out to cleaner eating and would like to try vegan diets once a week and this book looks amazing.
I'd love to win the cookbook – I've read about it on your blog and on ELR' (Jenna's blog) and I've even checked out the One Lucky Duck site….but I haven't yet gotten up the courage to try eating raw, and I'm not much of a cook, so I need all the help I can get!
What would I make first – vanilla chai pudding or some other dessert!
I have been wanting to learn more about eating raw and this cookbook would be a perfect way for me to do so! I have been contemplating going out and buying this cookbook, but I am broke as a joke 🙂
Wow, I dream of owning this cookbook. First off, she is not only gorgeous but her food creations sound so AMAzING! Seeing them on your page has made me so excited to try this book.
Thanks for this great giveaway!
I've been reading up and thinking about going raw a bit more than I do and a new cookbook would definitely help!
i would LOVE to win this cookbook because I have wanted to experiment with raw foods for awhile now, and this would be the perfect way to start 🙂
I would love to win this cookbook so I can get my husband to enjoy raw food. I would make one of the salads first. They are perfect to bring to work for a quick lunch.
I would love to win this book because i love PURE and thought their first cookbook was great!!
Oh, you've made us all jealous of your raw food! I would definitely try the pudding you posted the other day – mmmmm!
I would love to win this cookbook so I could learn more about the raw food lifestyle. The first thing I would make would be some type of yummy dessert!
Your raw meals always look so good! I eat a lot of salads, but I've never tried any "raw" recipes. I've also yet to try chia (I still have flax in the fridge!), but plan on it… maybe a cookbook would help? hehe

wow awesome giveaway! i'd love to win the book because i've been wicked intimidated by trying raw food and i'd love to incorporate it in my life!
OH…..I am a huge Sarma fan:) I have been toying with more raw food and this would help me create new food adventures. I'd make her pudding FIRST! You guys always rave about it.
i would LOVE to win and incorporate more raw food in my life! i love the juice recipes and with my current dietary restrictions, this looks so awesome and will help me turn raw food into awesome whole dishes and i won't feel like i'm restricted.
I'm often intimidated by raw recipes. So I'd most like to win this book because it's supposed to show how raw food doesn't have to be complicated! BONUS!
I'd love to win this cookbook because everything in it looks delicious and uncomplicated. I have NO idea what those chocolate coconut bars are but I think those would be the first thing I would make from it. Yum!
Id love to win this as I have been trying to get healthier and get into raw foods!!!
I need a new cookbook bad!
I would LOOOOVE to win this cookbook! Actually, it would be for my grandmother, who has recently become interested in raw foods after some health scares. She even bought an Excalibur dehydrator, and I don't even have one yet! I ordered her some raw treats from One Lucky Duck, and she's obsessed! I'm sure she'd make some raw treats first. 🙂

I'd love to win this cookbook because I've been experimenting with more raw cooking (uncooking) and I'd love to have some sort of cookbook for guidance!
This is an awesome giveaway! I would love the book so I can have some unique recipes to cook for my hubbie. The type of cuisine is right down our alley. And. most importantly, he is in culinary school and hard to compete with! I'd like to make some dishes that match his ( or maybe come close!) 🙂
I would love to win this cookbook so I can finally try some delicious raw meals. I am inspired by your delicious cooking and want to try for myself. Thank you for the great giveaway Gina and the great blog 🙂
Mmm…would love this book b/c I'm totally inept when it comes to thinking raw. Would like to step outa my comfort zone.
I would love to win this cookbook because I'm really curious about the raw food diet! I really haven't tried it at all,but I'd love to see what creative foods I can make raw!I'd love to try and make any raw chocolaty or coconut-y dessert!
I've recently got really interested in raw food diets so I would love to win. I would definitely start at the desserts too! Thanks so much for the opportunity. I don't have a blog but I'm sending you an email.
i would love to win this cookbook because i'm convinced that more raw foods will benefit my health, but i struggle to eat them because i just don't like them as much as steamed/roasted/sauteed ones. i could really use some ideas for raw meals!
I would love this cookbook and do plan to add it to my cookbooks at some point. I eat a high raw vegan diet and absolutely love it!
Thank you!
Gotta say I love this, I think I would try some kind of dip–or anything sweet. Nummy!!
I'd love to have this book because I just had my first raw sushi last weekend in NYC in her store and LOVED IT!!!
