I am also trying to move towards a raw foods diet. I am not in anyway opposed to eating raw egg yolks and sometimes beef tartare and sushi (kind of expensive though.) Right now I make eggnog with coconut milk and 3-4 egg yolks blended with vanilla bean and sometimes a tiny dab of raw honey. YUMMMMMMY

Also I am making macadamia nut whipped cream and fake nut meatballs which are really good!

A decent book for some low carb raw ideas is Gabriel Cousins' Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine. He seems to think that when you transition to a raw food diet you should start out eating only low carb stuff like greens, low carb veggies, coconuts and nuts. He breaks his diet down into 3 stages and each stage allows slightly carbier food. The only thing is that he is vegan and I don't really think that is the healthiest so I will keep adding egg yolks and other tolerable raw animal foods.
