My next guest blogger contributing to my Vegan Resources! Click here to see all of the contributors and read their stories!

Emily von Euw has been one of the biggest inspirations to me here in the 'blogger world'. Her website, This Rawsome Vegan Life, never ceases to disappoint. All of her recipes are accompanied with mouth watering photos, and most are raw vegan. Emily has shown me, and hopefully will show the rest of you, that veganism is not bland or complicated or unappealing as most may assume it to be, but rather, it is fun, delicious, color filled, and one of the best decisions you can make for yourself in your lifetime. Emily is so positive in her writing on her posts on both her website and Instagram, and I always look forward to the weekly emails I receive. So, without further or do, I introduce to you Emily von Euw.

Raw Chocolate Cream Caramel Bars

My parents named me Emily von Euw, and I have been hanging around this planet for about 20 years plus a few months. I reside in Vancouver, Canada with my family, friends, lover and approximately 1 million other people I don't know personally.

I adore being alive. I also adore avocados. I've always defined myself as a critical thinker, and part of being a critical thinker is hyper-analyzing everything that surrounds me (which, in this modernist world, is quite a lot). Being in my brain is overwhelming much of the time but I have learned to manage being me by treating myself with respect (this includes meditating regularly, getting outdoors whenever possible, and feeding my body and mind whole, nourishing, organic foods). I think while we are here for these some odd 80 years most of us get on average, we should make those happy years. Ultimately, who really know if anything matters? So let's just have a good time while we can, and not tell other people how to live their lives.

I like to dance, laugh, eat, drink, eat some more, always learn, always try to improve myself, do anything that gives me a natural dopamine rush (all of the things just mentioned, plus sex, exercise, hiking, cuddling other animals, and looking into the eyes of people I love). I study history at university (getting my bachelors now, plan on getting my masters later) and I am also a full-time food blogger! What the heck does that mean? Well, it means I spend a lot of time making raw vegan recipes, taking food porn pictures of them, then sharing it all on the world wide web.

My blog is called This Rawsome Vegan Life.

Black Rice Pilaf + Veganish Book Review & Giveaway"Eat Smart, Get Healthy and Feel Beautiful Inside & Out"

Today I am going to review for you another resource that I recommend as part of my How to Adopt A Plant-Based Diet and Succeed. What I have here today is Veganish: The Omnivores Guide To Plant-Based Cooking. This book is definitely something I wish I had had while transitioning into a plant-based diet from a standard American diet. It covers literally every aspect of plant-based cooking, both nutritionally and culinarily. It basically helps you transition with no fears, worries or temptations. It covers any and every type of recipe you may be craving, and will help you prove to yourself, and the world, that living this lifestyle is not only easy, but it is enjoyable and such a beautiful way to live.

If you have ever dreamed of having a personal chef  to provide you with not only a healthy diet, but one that is great tasting, this book will do just that. Veganish offers a holistic approach to food that will make you healthy AND satisfied. This book will be your go-to guide.
