Here I go again, Day 1

I went away on vacation. I drank a lot, ate lots of fries, and bread. Being a vegan going away for the first time was difficult. I ate salad and fries or salad and bread, oh and pasta. I can't just eat salad and drink alcohol, I'll pass out. So instead of not drinking I choose to eat bad carbs. Oh and I had more that usual coffee.

So now that I'm back, I think its time for a detox.

Day 1
Breakfast: 1 cup almond milk, 2 tbs of almond butter, 1 tsp of flax seed, one banana, 1 kale.

Veggie/fruit juice blended in an 8 cup Vitamix.
4 cups of water
4tbs lemon juice
3 inch ginger
1/2 cucumber
3 celery stalk
1 cup of carrots
1 granny Smith apple
1 cup of red grapes
3 kale stalks
3tps spirulina
1/2 avocado

Sweet goodness

When I make a great tasting mix I have to share it.

3 cups of coconut water
2 green apples
1 cup of grapes
1 cup of blue berries
1/2 an avacado
2 inch piece of ginger
1/2 a large beet
2.5 tbs of apple cider vinegar

I use the vitamix blender. This is an awesome smoothie. You taste the ginger and a hint of the vinegar, and it's very tasty.

Let me know if you try this.

Happy new year

I know I haven't posted in a while, life and work has kept me busy. I still have been juicing but not as much as I should. I took the time to go to the food coop and but a bunch of fruits and veggies. Last night I prepared enough for two days of juice.

2 green apples
1 gala apple
2 celery stalk
2 inch of ginger
Half an avocado
Half a beet
A handful of parsley
2 carrots
Half a mango
3 stalks of kale
1 lemon squeezed
3tsp of spirulina

This was all blended in my 8 cup Vitamix blender. I add 4 cups of water, blend it, and then took some out and added another cup of water, because I wanted a smoother consistency.

This is 10 servings of fruits and veggies. More than I could eat in a day but I can drink it just fine.
