Las Vegas Organic Raw Vegan Dining
Great food preparation and presentation. My favorite is The Lakes location on the West side; has a view overlooking private Lake Sahara. Try the ginger drink -- they use real ginger. It knocks my socks off. WOW!

Las Vegas Organic Do-It-Yourself Options
OPTION 1: Pick up Organic Food Bars: chocolate chip, vegan, Omega 3. MSRP: $2.69-$2.79 each. Buy in bulk from Amazon @ about $2 each (see link below). Perfect for long days sightseeing or attending a convention or trade show. WARNING: Don't leave them outside in the heat. They'll turn into pudding.
OPTION 2: Stay at a suites hotel, by the day or week. Stock your kitchen area with fresh organic produce and organic entrees. Cook on stove top or in microwave. (Personally, I avoid microwave ovens. If I drive, I bring my own Cuisinart toaster oven.) WARNING about weight sensors in Las Vegas hotel refrigerators.
OPTION 3: I also bring along a Tribest blender. Stock the room refrigerator with fresh organic fruits and vegetables, frozen organic berries, some Omega 3 oil. Trade Joe's has 64-oz bottles of organic juices: $3-$4 each. Blend fresh smoothies, protein drinks, green drinks.
Here's What I Use...
Pop It in the Toaster Oven: From Entrees to Desserts, More Than 250 Delectable, Healthy, and Convenient Recipes
If you're not used to cooking meals with a toaster oven, check out this book or something similar. When I travel, I want to keep it simple. I cook frozen entrees like Amy's Enchiladas or Mac & Cheese. Even Whole Foods 365-brand pizza. Just drizzle on some organic virgin olive oil and a couple dashes of salt & pepper. Awesome!

Cuisinart TOB-50 Classic Toaster Oven Broiler, brushed stainless and black
I like this product for traveling and quick meal prep in a hotel suite. Cuisinart makes better models. (Broiling tray rusted out almost immediately.) But for me, this is a reasonable balance between price and quality. Oven still works good after 2 years.

Tribest Personal Blender PB200 Super Convenience Pack
One of the best investments I've ever made. Easy to use and clean. Makes smoothies, protein drinks, salad dressing, pancake batter and more. Model PB-200 comes with additional cups and a grinding blade for making nut butters.
I can whip up a protein shake in less than 60 seconds. Drink out of the container cup with the sipping cover. A simple rinse in the sink cleans it up. Gets me out the door in a hurry. I take it with me whenever I travel !!
