Top RAW Food Potluck and Guest Speaker in Scottsdale!

Join us at Natural Grocers in Scottsdale on Saturday, August 2, starting at 5:30pm for this month's Top Raw Potluck and special guest speaker! Please come and experience the grandeur, the spectacle, and the wonder of the world's most succulent and tantalizing foods. You'll discover new and creative dishes, consisting of savory and satisfying flavors, from foodstuffs found only in Nature. Get Real. Have Fun. Enjoy Life. And Living Foods! Hosted by Mary. (NOTE: This is a potluck, so please bring a RAW Vegan dish [to feed 8-10 people] and bring your own plate, utensils, and drinking cup [and take them with you afterwards].) This is a potluck, so please bring a Vegan RAW food dish (veggies/nuts, herbs/spices, salt, olive oil are generally acceptable ingredients for dishes), or a salad (fruits, veggies, nuts, spices), or a fruit/veggie platter for eight (or more) people, fully prepared and READY TO EAT. Don't know what to bring? There are literally 4.63 gazillion recipes on the Internet. Type in: "Raw Food Recipes" in a search engine and see what happens! To see what others have brought at past Meetups to this event visit: https://www.meetup.com/VEGphx/photos/29509277/ HOUSE RULES at Natural Grocers: No items with gluten whatsoever are allowed, and there's no soliciting nor selling of anything at the store (which are the exclusive realm of the venue hosting the event). And to cut down on costs/waste, please bring your own plate, utensils, and drinking cup (and take them with you afterwards). Also, if you could list the ingredients of your dish, that would be helpful to people with allergy issues. Finally, we must have cleaned and vacated the potluck room (just inside the front door to the left) by 8:30pm. Please cooperate in that regard. Please be advised that this is a RAW-Vegan potluck. For those persons unfamiliar with "raw," that generally means no foodstuffs that have been heavily processed/heated/cooked. In other words, "raw" typically entails foodstuffs as Nature intended (e.g., fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts/seeds, sprouts) which have all their nutrients intact, and not cooked out of existence, nor processed into oblivion. Most manufactured/canned/bottled/packaged foods, such as popcorn, chips, Veganaise, etc. are typically not "raw"; though, cold-pressed olive oil, raw coconut aminos, raw agave, spices, and salt are generally-acceptable exceptions to the non-packaging precept.
