Reboot day 1

I have been in the kitchen ALL DAY. I didnt realize it would take so much work preparing all this food! First day has gone ok.  We are still truckin.  The meals have definitely been interesting.  Today's meal plan was as follows:

An herbal tea with honey and lemon

Breakfast: Cherry cinnamon Apple Bake Sounds delicious but oh man the recipe called for way too much cinnamon! We still ate it but yuck!

Then we had a late morning Green Juice for a snack but of course I forgot to get a picture. It included Kale, spinach, ginger, cucumber, celery, and apples. It tastes ok. Not my favorite!

Lunch was much better! Arugula Spinach Salad with Mustard vinaigrette Dressing.  The dressing was even made from scratch. SO GOOD.  I seriously want to make our own salad dressings from now on.  It's so easy! I'll share a separate post later with the recipes for dressings we make.  And we also had a Raw Carrot Ginger soup.  The soup was actually good, it had Cayenne pepper, salt, ginger, avacado and carrot juice all pureed together.  It was strange eating cold soup but it was still good. 

Dinner was just a big salad of whatever veggies we wanted, and steamed broccoli, snow peas and green beans.  The steamed veggies were drizzled with an amazing Ginger Honey Soy dressing. 

Caden is not participating in this reboot of course :) So tonight he ate chicken nuggets and broccoli!  He's definitely going through a growth spurt because he's been eating a ton the past few days! He downed 8 chicken nuggets and all his broccoli.  He loved the dressing on the broccoli so much he kept asking for more and saying mmmm while he ate it :) hehe.

Because this is a reboot all we are drinking is water and herbal tea. No caffeine whatsoever! And surprisingly I have not had one caffeine headache today! I thought I was starting to get one before lunch but I just drank more water and it was gone.  I'm so surprised!

So day one down!  We are having a lot of fun with this even though all the meals arent that great ;)  We just laugh at eachother and at how much food is on our plates!  It's unbelievable! I dont think I've ever had this many vegetables in one day.  I feel awesome though.  I have energy, my skin is glowing, and I just have an over all sense of healthy!  I am craving bread though. LOL! 

 I'm looking forward to incorporating lots more veggies into our meals after this is done.  No we are not looking to become vegetarians! We're from Texas yall!!  haha. We love our meat.  And mexican food...... ok no more talk of mexican food, I have four more days to go!
