This raw vegan food recipe for rich and creamy almond sauce brings the taste of Asia to your raw food diet. Since raw peanuts are so hard to come by we've used raw vegan almond butter instead. The result is a rich and creamy sauce that dances across your taste buds with classic Asian flavors. You can adjust the spiciness to your liking (or exclude it altogether). Serve over julienned zucchinis and bell peppers, or even use as a salad dressing!
