Today I thought it appropriate for my Food Photography Friday post to be dedicated to Raw Melissa’s greatly-anticipated cookbook! I can’t even express how excited I am that this dream of Melissa’s is finally a reality! Melissa is the real deal, folks. She lives what she preaches & she’s as healthy, gorgeous and genuine in real life as she appears to be.
Most of the food photos that are in this cookbook are images I’ve shot for Melissa. You’ll recognize the first cover photo as one from a recent Raw Melissa shoot that I posted about. We’ve had a lot of fun in the process and I’ve even gotten to taste the recipes, so I can vouch for the yummy-factor! Not only are the recipes healthy, they’re beautiful and very nutritious. If you’re looking to add more fruits and vegetables into your family’s diet, you’ll love Melissa’ cookbook.
Here’s a little bit more about the cookbook from Melissa:
This is a beautiful little cookbook full of fresh recipes that will please you and your family. It’s got a beautiful glossy cover filled with photos and beautiful illustrations as well as several pages of facts about the nourishing foods included in the recipes. The paper is thick with a “raw” texture and the layout is extraordinary. You’ll find six sections: light meals, desserts, salads, salsas, sauces and dips and smoothies, all fresh and delicious. My favorites are the famous Thai Nut Sauce, Lime Mousse, Winter Tomato Sauce, the Raspberry Basil Smoothie, the No Bake Chocolate Cookies and, well, I like all the recipes and I think you will, too. I’ll be at the American Fork Good Earth on September 18th from 11am-4pm to sign copies and give out free vanilla and chocolate covered macaroons! If you purchase a cookbook at the discounted pre-sale price, you can pick it up that day or you may pay for shipping and we’ll ship it to you. Just be sure to include your name and address.
Love to all,
Melissa
