My Raw Vegan Detox - Day 1


Because it's been a while - oh, so past due!
Because April brought Easter baking and anniversary cake. 
Because it's just so tempting - the view from upstairs at Convent Market, while having tea at Tea Haus it's simply breathtaking and makes me wanna dive head first in that colorful wonderland.
Because I was craving it. 

Organic everything - I'm not going to mention this beside each food.
My primary source of inspiration: the Ecopolitan 7-days raw plan. My other sources: oh-so-many. 

My meals today (yes, almost everything goes: "in a large bowl, mix together. Let sit for a while before serving"):

Started with
- bananas
- shredded apple
- Chia seeds.

I usually like caffeine  with my workouts, so today I was following the detox rule - no caffeine, so teaching the Zumba class felt good, but I was honestly missing the wings of awesome. But thought it was worth it!

Meal 2:
- freshly made orange, apple & carrot juice (with a dash of cinnamon)
- almond butter

Meal 3: 
- huge zucchini - shredded
- sweet tomatoes, diced
- broccoli, finely chopped
- parsley leaves, finely chopped
- sea salt

Meal 4:
- walnuts
- watermelon

Meal 5:
- spinach, finely chopped
- tomatoes, diced
- living red lettuce
- pumpkin seeds
- black pepper

Water. Plenty. Loads. Herbal tea. Same.
