Prep for day 1
Normally I’ll put prep notes for the following days at the end of each post. Since this is the first of these I’ll add it here
Coconut Sesame Milk Prep: Soak 1/2 cup black sesame seeds overnight.
Iced Herbal Coffee or Tea: Brew up a big pitcher of your favorite iced herbal coffee or tea. I’m using my favorite Herbal Coffee made by Mountain Rose Herbs.
Breakfast
Glass of Iced Herbal Coffee w/ Coconut Black Sesame Milk
Juice: Celery, Romaine, Lemon, Cucumber, Apple
Coconut Black Sesame Milk
1/2 cup Coconut Chips
1/2 cup black sesame seeds, soaked overnight
4 cups water
2 tbs. raw, local honey
1 tsp lecithin
1/2 tsp Vanilla Bean Powder
Place coconut chips, black sesame and water in a blender. Blend on high until smooth. Strain through a nut milk bag. Put milk back in the blender (saving moist pulp in the freezer for future use) and add remaining ingredients. Blend until well-combined.
SnackFresh Papaya
Lunch
Nori Rolls
This is a common workday lunch for me because I can grab a bunch of leftovers and goodies, throw them in a bag and have a delicious lunch at work. Each day I have nori rolls at work I’ll list the ingredients that I rolled up.
Raw Nori Sheets
salt-wilted kale with a little lemon juice & olive oil
avocado
Shockingly Bleu-cheesy dressing
Sunflower sprouts
cucumber spears
Spirulina Crunchies
Nutritional Yeast Flakes
Cayenne Pepper
Shockingly Bleu-cheesy dressing
2 tbs. Tahini
2 tbs. Green Hemp Seed Butter
1/4 cup olive oil
juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp. stoneground mustard
1/4 cup water
2 tbs. miso
Blend everything until smooth & creamy.
SnackChocolate Milk (blended cacao powder, cashew butter, honey & vanilla bean powder with water)
Dinner
Freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
3 slices of Rayo Del Sol’s Banana Bread with cashew butter
Family Additions
For breakfast my husband & daughter typically have a smoothie that my husband makes, my daughter also had some green juice.
For dinner I was not very hungry but I made a romaine salad, guacamole and quesadillas made with corn tortillas & raw cheese. I’m planning on using the leftover salad & guacamole in our lunch tomorrow.
Prep for coming days
My biggest prep chore today was starting an extremely large batch of sauerkraut. A meal is barely complete for me without sauerkraut. Its hot here now so I’m hoping to have a fresh supply after a few days of fermentation.
Optional Treatments/Supplements
Over the years of trying to find the right level of raw food intake for myself I have realized that whenever I increase my raw intake I get constipated for a few days. I also slip into a detoxification stage very rapidly. I find that two things are helpful: regular enemas and 2 Intestinal Movement Formula Capsules before bed.
