Day 1: Detox cleanse

Posted on June 15, 2009

Clean Detox Cleanse

Day One:

8 am: Herbal tea and a glass of water

10:30 am: Blueberry almond smoothie

1 cup blueberries
1.5 cups almond milk
1 teaspoon agave nectar
2 teaspoons carob powder
handful of ice
--Blend and serve.

My energy level is really high, and I'm hardly hungry.

12:30 pm: Garden fresh green salad
A bowl of watercress, swiss chard, arugula and lettuce straight from my garden. Drizzled a little olive oil and white balsamic vinegar. Truly divine.

Felt tired this afternoon, and a little groggy. Kept drinking water to flush out the toxins.

5:00 pm: Alaskan salmon with pesto and millet

5 ounces of fresh Alaska salmon (sockeye is now in season)
Sprinkle salmon with olive oil, season to taste. Broil, 3 minutes on each side.

1 cup millet
2 cups water
Toast millet in saute brown until golden brown. Boil 2 cups of water. Add toasted millet, let simmer for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Pesto
2 cups basil
3-4 TBL olive oil
1 container of pine nuts
Blend in a food processor.

Serve salmon fillet over millet and top with pesto.

It's 7:15 pm and I'm feeling energized, not really hungry...but my muscles are starting to ache. Grabbing another pitcher of water.
