I can’t believe how good it is, and it’s sugar-free, dairy-free, and RAW! http://ow.ly/BN0C Just thought I would pass it on.

She has spoken at the Macrobiotic Summer Conference, the Kushi Institute (the worlds premier center for macrobiotic studies) puts on each year. I would like for your readers to be clear though, this book should not be used for someone interested in living a macrobiotic lifestyle. There are some cautions to be mindful of. For example; the carrot daikon drink could weaken someone with compromised health and who does not eat meat. Macrobiotics is an amazing way of life, but is individual to each person and a consultation with a macrobiotic counselor should be considered to tailor the diet to their personal condition. There should have been a disclaimer in the book that Alicia's idea of macrobiotics is a general one, and NOT for someone who needs to heal from ill-health.

I was browsing it at a Borders but am definitely going to purchase it. Whole grains need to be a part an individual’s routine diet. I have some recipes you might enjoy which are tasty and include different whole grains: http://www.shar-on-nutrition.com/?p=362 Feel free to comment and keep up the good writing!

Your dinner sounds yummy! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the book.I love Alicia Silverstone too! I'm doing the same with my fam- trying to exclude meat- eat more of a macrobiotic, raw, vegan diet. It's been tough on the dairy side of things (not for me personally, never been a fan of milk) but for the hub He's okay not eating meat as long as I can provide good textures and flavor but it's the damn dairy! He's not a huge fan of nut milks either. What's your favorite besides almond? We haven't tried sesame yet- need to tho'. It's been a long battle but I'm not going to give up. He knows he needs to kick dairy to the curb! LOL! ;) Hi Tiffany! Your dinner sounds yummy! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the book.I love Alicia Silverstone too!

Your recipes look good & I'm going to try to incorporate more vegetarian meals in our diet. Plus that lead me right back to the Amazing Grass powder. I saw it awhile back & meant to revisit - I just ordered some online. I'll also check out this book. Thanks for all suggestions & recommendations! Take care...

Glad to hear you loved it, I can't wait for my kiddos to go to bed so I can dive into this book with no interruptions... as long as I can put it down and get some sleep at some point! lol.

We gave up dairy over a year ago, until I found a (very) local raw-milk source that allows me to visit the cows and know exactly what's happening from that mom to my table. (And even at that, our family of 4 goes through less than a half-gallon a week.) We hardly eat meat anymore either, and rice & beans is the all-time favorite for our young girls. Also a great "grain" dish with children (that fits w/macrobiotics) is our take on "sushi": Cook a pot of "sticky" grains (brown rice & millet are our favorites). Season grain w/vinegar if desired. Serve w/raw nori (seeweed) sheets & a variety of sliced raw veggies (cukes, avocado, enoki mushrooms, zucchini, carrots, peppers, etc) and sesame seeds & pickled ginger. It is so much fun to let everyone wrap their own, and I LOVE hearing my 5 yo ask for more veggies!
