Love freezing and thawing juice

I have been pleasantly surprised with how good the juices taste.  I was sure I'd be able to taste a big difference and I couldn't. 

Nothing says good morning like some greens

Mean green juice with added greens. Mean green recipe and then add(spinach Swiss chard parsley dandelion)

Leftovers for lunch

Lunch

A salad and Lebanese couscous with oyster mushrooms and beet greens. 

Happy thanksgiving.

Kamut salad. And

Let the games begin. Going to dinner at my family's. Had mean green juice for breakfast. 

Lunch

Dinner zucchini noodles

I used my spirooli thingie again. This thing is great!

Really yummy. 

Pummelo

Had my first pummelo last weekend. Very interesting. Sweet. No sour or bitter notes. 

Giant. That's a 16 oz jar

Trying to eat better. Breakfast

My husband's breakfast. Egg avocado tomato crumpet

Mine is basically the same on sprouted English muffin. 

Vegetarian risotto with asparagus, carrot, mushroom and cheese

It was so steamy it steamed my lens. 

Falafel pie. By the vegan stoner

So, I tried the fafafel pie on the blog called the vegan stoner. Love the illustrations. I added some avocado and made my own hummus with red peppers added. 

The cucumber was watery and made the sauce runny -- it was all delicious. 

Easy.  Mix falafel mix with water, bake for 15 mins at 350 in the bottom of an 8x8 pan. Let cool. Layer some hummus on top. Cut up 1/2 a cuke and some tomato (added avocado here) layer on. Make tzatziki sauce with other 1/2 of cuke, yogurt (soy) and tsp lemon juice. Drizzle that on. And viola. Dinner. 

Juiced all yesterday

This was lunch and late juice. 

Pineapple, cilantro, parsley, dandelion, fennel, carrots, cranberries, grapes, pomegranate, kale, chard, spinach, orange pepper, apple, and celery. 

Stuffed acorn squash

Wild rice and veggies stuff this acorn squash.

Yesterday's dinner

I'm a day behind!

Vegan shepherd's pie. I made it in a casserole. 

The recipe is called shepherd-less pie. It was very tasty. 

Making kale chips

Got the best and largest head of kale for $2 at Whole Foods of all places!  Gonna make kale chips. 

Vegan nacho sauce 

Fresh kale loaded in the dehydrator. 

Kale chips!

Digestion back on track. Check.

It seems like I'm never hungry. I don't know if my stomach shrank or just solid food just seems to be staying in there longer than juice did. Yesterday's meals 

Egg on whole grain toast with avocado 

Lunch was soup. (Butternut squash, sweet potato, leeks and carrots). Pumpkin seeds on top. 

And for dinner "lasagne". It was polenta, vegan cheese sauce with kale and portobello mushrooms and topped with marinara and "cheese". 

My meals

Yesterday's meals consisted of soup for lunch

And some brick like bread

For dinner I made zoodles. Zucchini cut to look like spaghetti. 

I sautéd them and topped with an avocado pesto. (Avocado, basil and garlic into cuisinart). 

Topped with organic cherry tomatoes. 

My first solid meals

I've seen a lot that it should just be fruit or smoothies or whatever. 

I've anxiously awaited this day for about a month. 

This is the Kuri squash I roasted yesterday for my soup for today's lunch 

This is the bread mix (from Ikea). 

It's almost the same color as the counter. ;)

It's raw and waiting to rise. 

Two days left.

Coconut motherload. 

Antioxidants

Red grapes, pomegranate and blueberries 

Most delicious juice. Watermelon and these babies. 

Coming close to the end

I'm planning out my first few meals. Definitely vegetarian (to start). Soups then stuff that's easily digested then on to other foods. We've decided to commit to eating out only once a month. That will be huge for us. Thanksgiving comes up then Christmas. Both challenging as we are with family.  I've compiles a massive collection of recipes and I'll be going through them over the next few months. 

So. It's my birthday. And I'm on a blasted juice fast

Another day. Another juice. 

Final week. Yah.

Can't wait.  

My every thing juice

Beets, cranberries,papaya,mango, pomegranate, orange, fennel, chard, spinach, kale, pineapple and ginger

Look at this baby. Brussel sprouts

Got em at Trader Joes. 

Been gathering up recipes and ingredients for the end of my fast

I've got Every pot, every pan. I'm ready for solid food. Craving food all the time! 

Just 10 more days

Slogging through. I see the end is near.

Day 50. With 10.5 days to go.
