When the green beans are dripping off the vine, it's time to come up with a raw vegan green bean salad recipe So here she is. We love coriander, but if you don't have it ground you may want to leave it out, the crunchy seeds will not soften in this raw dish. You can substitute the white part of a green onion for the leek, or if you have to use red onion you may want to mince it. (we admit we used half toasted sesame oil instead of the all raw olive oil because it went so well with the indian spices)if you're eating a raw vegan diet, don't miss these amazing and beautiful raw food salad recipes.
