As you may know, Scott Mathias is a dear friend of the Raw Food Institute of Australia.

We love his work too!

He is an amazing Raw Food Chef and Nutrition coach.

I love that he keeps his food simple, but so beautiful. I have had the privilege of dining on Scott’s creations a few times now, and I am never disappointed. In case you haven’t had the chance to experience his food, here is one of his quick and simple dishes, that you can make in minutes…

Zucchini Fettuccine with Asparagus and Fresh Olives.

He recently launched his exquisite recipe book, “Let’s Eat Raw”. Did you know he is the first Australian to publish a raw recipe book? Kudos to you Scott.

Oh, and by the way… did you know Asparagus is one of the most nutritious veggies available? High in vitamin K, folate, copper, selenium and manganese. Zucchini is high in vitamin C, Niacin and, of course, is a great source of protein. We’re not giving nutritional advise here… but anyone can see Zucchini Fettucine is one healthy dish!!
