Raw Vegan Curry over Indian Spiced Veggies & 'Rice'

This curry is a touch on the spicy side and bursting with a variety of complimentary and dynamic flavors. It is one of the recipes featured in Raw Vitality, the premier raw food and juice holistic cleanse created by Align Holistic Health & Well Being. That is because this satisfying meal has a nice blend of cleansing herbs and fresh vegetables that work to cleanse, balance and heal. The raw ingredients increase energy at the cellular level by providing your body with the highest quality fresh, organic nutrients.
