Reboot Detox Day 2

12 Mar

A little late, I know, I have been busy juicing my life away. Seriously, it is a lot of work! So if you are already busy I recommend to read through the recipes because some are repeated, you can make double and have it ready.

When you make your juices ahead of time, it is important to immediately store them in a glass jar with a lid in the fridge (mason jars are perfect for this). If you are taking them to work with you, make sure you keep them in a cooler with ice gels and/or the refrigerator – they are extremely perishable. To obtain the most nutrients drink it within 24 hours.

Now, to the menu:

When you wake up: Hot water with lemon and ginger

Breakfast: Berry – Apple -Cinnamon Bake (same as Day 1)

Morning Snack: Celery Pear Cucumber

CeleryPearCucumberjuice

Lunch: Kale and Avocado Salad+Raw Carrot Ginger Soup

Raw Carrot Ginger Soup

Raw Carrot Ginger Soup

The original recipe for this raw soup includes honey and coconut. I do not like sweet soups, so I adapted again to my taste. Instead, I skipped those ingredients, and added curry powder, and cayenne and garnished with avocado.

Afternoon Snack: Celery Pear Cucumber

Dinner: Green Detox Soup+Sauteed greens with Garlic

For the Sauteed Greens I used Chard, Kale and Spinach. I sauteed in coconut oil with garlic, sea salt and a dash of nutmeg. My favorite recipe of the day!

Before Bed: Herbal Tea (caffeine free)

The second day went by fine. No cravings, and no painful side effects. I felt super energized, as if I had taken 5 espresso shots at once.

So far, so good!

Gluten Free Almond Flour Pancakes

7 Apr

almondpancake2 almondpancake3 almondpancake4After a while ,having eggs for breakfast gets boring. I craved for something fluffy and sweet.

This recipe is very easy and quick. It takes a while to get used to the texture and flavor, but nothing that a little jam won’t fix.

I like St. Dalfour  Strawberry Spread. It is french, and it has no preservatives, no artificial flavors or colors. It is sweetened with concentrated grape juice. It is available in most grocery stores.

Ingredients

1 cup Almond Flour or Meal

1 cup milk, water, almond milk, or soy milk

3 eggs( at room temperature)

1 tbsp Baking Soda

1 tsp vanilla extract

Stevia, Agave or Honey to taste ( I used 2 tbsp, but taste the batter )

You can also add some Cinnamon, Lemon zest, orange zest to your liking

Method

1. Place all ingredients together in a bowl, and mix it with a whisk, or use an immersion blender. Make sure there are no lumps.

2. Heat up a griddle, or flat pan in medium high. Spray it with coconut oil, or any other oil you prefer.

3. Pour the batter in the griddle, in small amounts,an wait until small bubbles start to form in the edges.

4. It’s time to flip them with a spatula.

5. Serve with the topping of your preference and enjoy!
