I’m over half way through. Today was rough, I was ready to throw in the towel until my dessert/dinner.
Breakfast was very tasty. I really enjoyed the green apple in my smoothie for it’s sweet tart flavor. I was quite hungry by 9:30 and dove into my almond mid-morning snack. Time flew by and before I knew it I was hungry for lunch and it was 12:30. Unfortunately, I cut into my avocado at lunch time and found strange brown, stringy, rotten looking things staring back at me. This didn’t leave me with much to eat for lunch.
I wasn’t hungry at 3:00 but knew it was only a matter of time. I went to the local QFC and couldn’t find anything raw nuts. They were all roasted. I ended up buying some natural chunky peanut butter. It was delicious with a banana, but was not raw….hopefully close enough.
When I arrived home, I nibbled on the nacho kale chips from yesterday while I made a dessert for dinner and for the rest of the family. It was a Fruit Tart recipe from Blender Babes that I recently saw on Facebook. I did not take a picture because mine looked nothing like theirs. I really liked the taste and so did my husband. It disappeared before I had a chance to ask if he liked it! My two boys have different tastes; one loved the fruit and one loved the crust.
