1 Day Reboot


Most people don’t eat enough when they are cleansing. Three meals a day does not really hold the average person over. How do you make yourself feel full? What should you be eating in between meals to make sure that you have energy? We are going to give you a sample day of recipes, which require minimal prep time, that are acceptable to eat on all of my cleanses.

Mid-Morning Snack

Almond butter reigns supreme when it comes to nut butters. You get healthy doses of magnesium, protein, and it tastes awesome on almost anything. Cut up one or two apples and dip them in this filling nut butter.

Ingredients

  • 3 c raw almonds
  • sea salt to taste
  • 1 tbsp. raw unfiltered coconut oil or grade A maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place the almonds in a food processor to grind for several minutes (about 12-15). If you have a good blender then it may be ready quickly.
  2. You want to stop every few minutes to push down what accumulates on the sides of the blender.
  3. Continue to process until you get a nice thick, creamy texture.
  4. Sprinkle in a pinch of sea salt and blend once again just to incorporate.
  5. If you want additional flavor- add a tablespoon of coconut oil or maple syrup and mix well.
  6. Store in a tupperware or mason jar in the fridge for about 6 weeks. (If you add the oils or syrup this will last about 1-2 weeks.)
