Drink

10:30am ~ Hot cocoa with Ho Shou Wu (herb-a general tonic for the liver and kidney)- I/2 tsp Ho Shu Wu, 1tsp cacao powder, half a mug of unsweetened Vanilla almond milk, half a mug of filtered water.

 

Snack

11:30am - Raw sweet potato chips with cinnamon (click here for recipe blog) Ate while making the kale chips.

Task
For 8hrs ~ Dehydrated some raw bbq kale (tomorrow's snack). Look for the recipe in tomorrow's blog. Put in Dehydraw to at 1pm and took them out at 9pm. They turned out amazing!

Lunch

12:30pm ~Kale, Broccoli and Quinoa with 1 boiled egg

 I used the kale pieces that weren't big enough for kale chips and used all the stems for my cooked meal...as the stems aren't very palatable raw.  I lightly steamed the kale on low heat until the steams were easy enough to eat. The flavoring was from some left over Chinese food (Broccoli in garlic sauce...which was a very delicious sweet sause with a little bit of a chili kick to it). I cooked the 1/2 cup of quinoa separately and stirred it in at the end when it was ready to serve.

 Every since I started eating cooked foods again, and brought back eggs into my diet I've been addicted to organic boiled eggs! So I sometimes include them as my protein. Just lightly sprinkled with garlic powder, onion powder, Himalayan salt and pepper. I boil the egg to keep the yoke as soft as possible for optimal nutrition.

My lunch kinda looked like a Sesame street character:p

Drink

1:15pm ~ herbal tea in teapot- I tsp yerba Mate loose tea leaves, 1tsp Chanca Piedra, 1 tsp hibiscus flowers, 1/2 tsp organic ginger powder (to have small cups of it throughout the rest of the day. Great way to stay warm, get your daily water intake with herbal benefits!

 

Workout~ 5:30pm-6:00pm

10 minutes on the re-bounder (little trampoline...warm up body), 20 minute interval running on the elliptic machine (30 seconds run fast, 90 seconds recover jog...repeat 8 times).

Snack

7:00pm ~ 1 apple

Drink

7:15pm ~ herbal tea from teapot

Dinner

8:00pm ~Raw chia meal (One of my favorite meals). Don't really know what to call it. I called it a chia breakfast, but I have it at any meal. I call it chia cereal, but it's not really a cereal, or chia dessert, but I have it for the main course, so "Chia meal" will have to do. 

I need to prepare it about and hr before I want to eat. I like to chill it in the freezer during that time, it becomes like ice-cream for dinner!

2 tbs of chia, about 2 1/2 cups almond milk, 1/2 tsp of cocoa powder, 1 tsp mesquite powder, dash of cinnamon, 1 banana, 5 prunes (cut in small pieces) Raisins or dates could work too, small handful of mixed nuts, chopped (almonds, pecans & walnuts). (Click here for Recipe Blog)

Drink

9:30pm ~Sleepy Tea
