So I have been trying to eat a raw food diet for just over 3 years now, but I still cave into cooked and processed foods almost on a weekly basis. I don't like it, because I have realized that I feel so much better if I do not resort to any cooked or especially processed foods.
So I am going to attempt keeping a food diary to help me stay on tract, and perhaps that will help me to take it to the 100% raw food mark by the end of the year or sooner. So the plan is to share with you everything that I eat each day, including breakfast, lunch, supper and my snacks, and drinks.
I will be sharing with you all my favorite foods, and post links to my favorite recipes, whether raw or not. Feel free to send me your favorite raw recipes and I will try them.
So for today...January 15th, I had the following foods:
Breakfast: I had a protein powder smoothie with an avocado, a banana, a small piece of ginger, some goji berries and the juice of 3 oranges.
Lunch: I had a late lunch today...the smoothie really filled me up. But I had a huge salad with romaine lettuce. For the dressing I mashed a large avocado, and mixed it with a little bit of sea salt and the juice of about 1/4 lemon, and massaged it into the lettuce. I also lightly toasted some sunflower seeds to top the salad.
Snacks: I roasted a lot of sunflower seeds, and snacked on them throughout the afternoon and into the evening. As a result I was not hungry for supper. Believe me, sunflower seeds are very filling.
Drinks: For my drinks, I decided to keep things simple today, and stuck with lemon juice with honey throughout the day.
