      I like to roll into the office stocked on broccoli and carrots like you, but I added sliced red peppers, cucumbers, and lately hummus! It's hard to make myself eat it, but I always feel great on the days I do...

      I like Pea Pods..

      Then take greek yogurt and mix a little ranch dressing mix into it for a dip!

      TASTY!

      I generally combine tomatoes with red bell peppers and add some pressed/dried cottage cheese (has the texture of feta, with out the high salt) and some mustard and it is simply a delightful salad.

      Those are the ones I usually pack as well.

      I also love cauliflower raw.
      I can also eat a whole bag of baby spinach, I just eat the leaves right out of the bag, yum!!
      cucs are alright
      radishes are good, I like to cut them up into really thin slices


      those are about all I eat raw, I will be looking forward to the other ideas

      I will be totally honest and say I don't enjoy eating vegetables at all, and even less raw. BUT as a vegetarian, I have to make myself eat most of them (peppers are completely out of the question, though), and they are ok. But great? No.

      Tomatoes, especially awesome with basil, or roasted garlic cloves =)

      Edamame aren't raw. At least not the way they do them round here.

      cucumbers, celery hearts, cauliflower, peppers, radishes, onions. I like to chop everything up and then put a splash of white wine vinegar, olive oil and fresh black pepper on for a tart taste!
