Health & Fitness - Day 14 & 15

 

First of all, deep thanks to HippieMom and to Kelli

for the Happy and Sunshine Awards......

Merci les filles ♥♥♥

It has taken me a while but I have posted and spread

the Happiness and Sunshine - I realized after doing it,

that I did it on my other blog The Healthy Plate instead 

of here.....Having 2 blogs can sometimes get confusing!

Done is done, better done than none!! :-)

Food & Liquids :

Day 14 :

1 liter Juice - celery, cucumber, pear, kale, lime

1 liter water with green powder

1 big salad - greens, sprouts, apple, avocado

1 glass coconut water

1 liter water with green powder

Mixed vegetables with small portion of buckwheat pasta

1 cup tea - yogi cinnamon spice

Day 15 :

1 liter Juice - celery, cucumber, carrots, 

orange, ginger, lime

1 liter water with green powder

2 wraps with salad filling

1 glass coconut water

1 bowl of Fruit and nuts with hemp milk

1 bowl of steamed broccoli/sweet potatoes

with coconut flax butter

1 liter water with green powder

1 glass Green Juice - apple, spinach, lime

I forgot to add the few spoons

of fish curry I had - made it for Trevor 

and simply could not resist eating some of it

off his plate!!!

Today I've had a lot of food.....

I don't know if it is because of the intense

workout that I was constantly hungry,

or maybe because I'm liquid feasting from tomorrow,

so was trying to grab what I could today!!! lol :-)

Ah the mind and body work in mysterious ways,

and its wonderful to simply accept and let it all

unfold as it will, everyday.....

I usually have some Coconut Flax Butter, 

in my fridge/freezer....it is high in Omega fats, 

tasty and so simple to make.....

1 cup coconut oil

1 cup flax seed oil

3 slices of sun dried tomatoes

1 clove of garlic
1 tablespoon of very finely diced white onion

Herbes de Provence (dried mixed herbs)

sea salt

Process sun dried tomatoes,
garlic, herbs and sea salt.

Gently warm the coconut oil,
add the onions and saute lightly.

and add the processed tomato,
herb, garlic mixture to it.

Mix well till it is combined.

Let it cool and then 

drizzle the flax seed oil
while stirring continuously.

Pour this oil mixture into ramequins

or a silicon ice cube tray.

Let it set in the fridge.

Use it on toast, steamed vegetables,
in soups and stews.
You can also freeze it and use it later......


I made another batch with
finely chopped fresh coriander,
mint, grated ginger, and grated lemon rind...

  

Like I mentioned earlier - I will be starting a Liquid feast
tomorrow, joining my dear friend HippieMom who is doing
the same from another part of the world....
We have not set a precise time frame - no idea how many
days this Feast will last....I'm just going to take it one day
at a time for now.....it could be 2 or 3 or 5 or even a week!!!
Maybe even more, I don't know :-)

Two years ago I did a 40 day Green Juice Feast......
and somehow right now, that feels totally surrealistic!!!
Completely crazy - lol
and yet, it was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life,
healing, transforming, spiritual - the best ever!!!!

Anyone else wants to join us??? :-)
