Okay guys. Today started out great, no actually it was terrible. Breakfast was awful, I ate a whole one spoonful of that crap and put the rest down the toilet. You know that sour taste after you throw up? That's what it tasted like. Just nasty.
The juices were good though! Okay, the first juice. The second one tasted like garden dirt.
I broke the menu for lunch and just had a large salad (was supposed to be Green Guac and Veggies)
30-minutes before Breakfast: Mellow Morning Juice
Breakfast: Mango Tango Smoothie Bowl
30-minutes before Lunch: Can't Beet Berries and Basil Juice
Lunch: Large Romaine and Spinach Salad
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "Mellow Morning Juice" for pre-breakfast included: oranges, English cucumber, water, and spinach
The "Mango Tango Smoothie Bowl" for breakfast included: almond milk, lime zest, lime, frozen mango with blueberry topping
The "Can't Beet Berries and Basil Juice" for pre-lunch included: strawberries, basil, red beet, English cucumber, green apple, lemon, and water
The "Romaine and Spinach Salad" that I created for my lunch included: romaine, spinach, green cabbage, carrots, almonds, and sunflower seeds. I put a raspberry vinegar on top for a dressing.

Now you're probably thinking, what happened to dinner? Well. Let me say it this way. We all were sad about not having cooked food and gave in... Yes, we ordered a Hungry Howie's pizza with cheesy Howie bread! I'm sorry. Actually, not really. It was horribly greasy and my body was like "hell no!" when I tried to eat it. I mean, it tasted good, but probably not worth the side effects I'm going to be feeling soon. So 3 1/2 days of eating healthy has completely changed EVERYTHING. I can't see myself having a pizza craving anytime soon. I actually feel like I need to eat an apple or some fruit to try to counteract it. Nasty!
In all fairness... I think the menu for tonight really scared us away. The menu called for a Cauliflower Rice Salad that has cauliflower, English cucumber, celery, green cabbage, dill pickles, olives, parsley, cilantro, mint, red onion, hemp seeds, and sesame seeds with a dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, onion powder, garlic, sea salt, allspice, and black pepper.... Now I would like to remind you again that this is all RAW. No thanks. Just nope.
So, we try again tomorrow!
Well it’s all a learning curve ��
