RAW VEGAN!

I've been a vegetarian my whole life and converted to a vegan in 2013. I've been a raw vegan since last year, but I've honestly been on more juice cleanses than an actually food eating diet that whole year. It's HARD only because I love spicy food. Any recipes on really yummy raw vegan spicy foods?

    Add hot peppers to your meals.

    Jalapeno cole slaw (similar to regular cabbage slaw with shredded jalapeno added)
    Mushrooms in a spicy marinade
    Add peppers and radishes to salads
    Spicy gazpacho

    Are dehydrated spices, hot sauces and/or pickles considered "raw"?
    If pickles are okay, make a brine with hot peppers (I like tabasco or hot Thai peppers best) and pour over almost any vegetable. Cauliflower, cucumbers, green beans, carrots, parsnips, radishes are some of my favorites.

    A fruit salad is pretty tasty with a little hot sauce added. I realize hot sauces are usually cooked, but you could also add some hot peppers and remove just before serving/eating.

    I'm not raw, but I add chopped jalapeno pepper to my meals a lot. If you dehydrate, you can also dehydrate jalapenos (or any pepper) and then grind them with a spice mill to make a powder you can add to just about anything.
