Breakfast, lunch and dinner....

Cleansing Plan Breakfast suggestions

  • Fruit salad with oats -- Fresh fruit salad sprinkling with oats.
  • Fresh fruit smoothie -- Fresh fruit, unsweetened organic apple juice and ice (you can add lecithin and flax oil)

Cleansing Plan Lunches/Dinner suggestions

  • Vegetable soup Large bowl of vegetable or lentil soup (either homemade or supermarket ‘fresh’)
  • Baked potato with fresh herbs and vegetables-- One day bake a coupla potatoes that you can eat during the week. Whatever vegetables you have in the house steam them put a tablespoon of olive oil (extra virgin) on them and season with herbs and viola!

Salads

  • A coupla times in the week cut up fresh vegetables and fruit. Eg. Green/red/orange/yellow peppers, broccoli, okra, strawberries etc. Have some raspberries, blackberries, avocado, cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and whatever other goods you picked up at the store and each day mix and match the vegetables in a salad. Sprouts are great as well. (Sprouts: mungbean, lentil and whole green peas are awesome!) Plus sprinkle a few raw almonds or unsalted cashews on top.
    For dressing, extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)

    OH, if you cant afford to buy organic then clean your fruits and vegetables with white or apple cider vinegar.
