• We Can't Believe We Found This Great Raw Foodie Heaven!

We'd eat here every day if we could. Unfortunately, we are visiting from Southern California and we wish we could take this marvelous place back to Ojai, CA with us! Not only is it super clean... no, it's sparkling clean... And, it's so tastefully decorated in such a way that it feels spacious, but at the same time very cozy. It's small, but packed with healthy eats. We had the raw pizza and the Largest Combination they offered which consisted of half of a wrap, a cup of soup of the day (Butternut Squash) and a fresh salad drizzled with a creamy nut cheese sauce. The raw pizza crust gave a choice of onion bread or a raw flaxseed cracker. We chose the cracker... and I'm so glad we did. It was fantastic! I would chose it again, but I'm curious to try the onion bread next time. The Wrap was awesome as was the Butternut Soup. The thing I loved best about the soup was it was just piping hot! How did they keep it so amazingly hot in that tiny little crockpot? The menu says, "Cooked Vegan Sprouted Soup," I don't think you can get more healthy than that! And, from the first bite of the wrap, you could practically feel it vibrate with wholesome goodness... and the taste beckoned you for another half! The living salad was so crisp and fresh, I felt as though someone had run out into the garden and picked each fresh leaf just before I ate it. My husband loved the Cashew Cream Cheese Salad Dressing so much, he asked for more... I was surprised because he doesn't usually doesn't do that. And, just before we left we ordered the Mango & Kale Blended Smoothie. The menu says it contains Coconut, Mango, Kale, Banana and Vanilla. I can definitely taste the quality packed into the little sized smoothie cup... I am sure my taste buds told me there were absolutely no "fillers" in there. No, this smoothie was pure and frozen quality ingredients... no water or ice added, I'm sure! If you're in the Novato area, treat yourself to a highly nutritious Real Live Raw Food Meal Experience. The menu board is so detailed in its "raw-ness" that it even points out which items utilize heat in their "cooked" offerings, which are very few... the hummus, the sprouted soups and the savory or sweet crepes. I LOVE that quality of the owner! It shows you how honest AND just how serious they take their artisan food craft here. So, give it ALL a try if you can. The prices are a modest asking for the highest of quality ingredients AND immaculate creations. Don't hesitate to "trust" these conscienious creators of true goodness in health. I have a feeling you are in good hands the minute you step in the door of the Easy Living Foods shop. Enjoy!
