Wild Rose Herbal D-Tox - Day 6

Half of the detox done!  I feel great, my energy level has greatly improved already, in only 6 days.  Before starting the detox, I had a constant stomach pain for 2 weeks.  Following my first day on the detox, the stomach pains were gone and haven't been back!  I'm very encouraged to keep going strong for the second half :)

breakfast

veggie scramble (serves 1)
1 cup chopped vegetables (peppers, onions, zucchini and garlic)
2 eggs
salt and pepper

1. In frying pan, cook vegetables until desired doneness,
2. Add eggs and scramble.
3. Add salt and pepper to taste.

lunch

Leftover Moroccan soup from yesterday.  For recipe, click here.

snack

roasted almonds

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
3. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet.
4. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

Sometimes a handful of these really does the trick!

dinner

brown rice curry with steak (serves 1)
1 cup brown rice, cooked
1 cup cooked vegetables (I used frozen peas, corn and green beans mix)
2 oz cooked steak (leftovers from the other day)
1/2 cup coconut milk
1-2 teaspoons green curry paste (I found a curry paste in the Asian section at Superstore that is allowed on this detox,  just look at the ingredients carefully.)

1. Heat coconut milk and curry paste.
2. Serve rice in a bowl, topped with vegetables, steak and pour curry sauce.

The information leaflet which comes with the detox doesn't mention coconut milk, but I searched and found out on Dr. Willard's blog that it's considered a nut and is acceptable: see the blog entry here.
