Please read previous blogs for tips on how to prepare.
Apple cider vinegar (raw and unfiltered) can be used as a salad dressing when you are in a hurry.
If you are a coffee drinker or you just need a pick me up, add fresh ginger to a shake!
Standard process has recently put together a booklet with recipes for 21 days with each day focusing on a different food. I DO NOT recommend starting this during this first week of the cleanse due to the amount of preparation it involves on a daily basis. However I do feel that it would be a great idea to start on day 8 of the cleanse. You can skip the veggies you are less thrilled about or you can keep going and make it a 28 day cleanse! This booklet has a ton of great nutrition information- in my opinion, probably the best put together source of info on nutrition today. (The recipes start on pg 30). Purification Cookbook
There are a bunch of salad dressing receipes listed in the back of the purication booklet that you recieved with the kits. There are also some suggestions in the link above.
Smoothies/shakes
-if you are premaking a day or two ahead of time, wait until you are about to drink to blend in the protein powder. -Bananas and blueberries tend to not “sit” very well. Drink these right away.
-disguise veggies that you don’t normally like in a smoothie with pineapple, pomegranate, oranges,and grapefruit as they tend to overpower.
These reciepes are approximations. Add more or less to increase viscosity.
Add 2 tbsp of the protein powder to any of these or just enjoy without. Remember you can have 2-3 with protein per day.
