Detox Week 3

Eating this way now feels normal to me. I feel light and strong and energized! I've gotten much faster at grocery shopping and I'm finding it interesting that there is so much food at the store that I have no desire to eat! I've also noticed that by not eating dairy and gluten, it's relatively easy to eat healthy because it automatically eliminates most of the junk food out there. I need to totally rethink my food philosophy from this point forward. On a negative note, the detox has kind of burnt me out from cooking. It's exhausting to plan and cook every single meal and snack for 3 weeks for 5 people - 3 of whom are not completely on the detox. I really feel for people who have to do this all the time because of food allergies, sensitivities, etc. Anyway, here are a few recipes I enjoyed from my final detox week.
