3 Day Detox Cleanse Meal Plan!

3 days to flush out the Nastys and lose a few unwanted lbs!!


UPON WAKING - LEMON AND GINGER WATER


Large mug of warm water.  Squeeze half a lemon and a pop a small piece of ginger into your mug.  Top with boiled water and add a little cold water to get a warm temp.  Feel free to have more than one mug.

BREAKFAST - FRESH JUICE

2 celery stalks
Half a cucumber
2 large kale leaves or a handful of spinach
Handful of fresh parsley
1/2 lemon (remove peel)
1 apple
1 raw beetroot (optional)

Juice all ingredients together.  If you don't have a juicer, you could use a blender and add a little water.  (with blending the consistency will be thicker)

MID MORNING SNACK - VEG STICKS

Makes enough for 3 days. Store in  tupperware.

3 cucumbers
3 celery stalks
3 carrots

Wash and cut into sticks, keep refrigerated until needed.

Veg sticks prepared and stored.


LUNCH - RESTORING BALANCE SOUP


Makes enough for 3 days.

1 1/2 litres of water
3 courgettes
3 celery stalks
1 large bunch green beans
1 large bunch fresh parsley
3 tomatoes
3 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tsp sea or rock salt
2 tsp dried herbs

Chop all the veg and put all ingredients into a large pot.  Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for 30 mins.  You can leave the soup chunky or blend if you prefer a smoother soup.
Divide into 3 portions and store in an airtight container in the fridge.

AFTERNOON SNACK - ALMONDS

Handful of almonds. Around 12 - 15.

DINNER - LARGE GREEN SALAD

Serves 1

1 ripe avocado, chopped
1/2 cucumber, chopped
1 carrot, grated
Large handful fresh watercress
Handful fresh coriander, chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped

Salad Dressing: Mix 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil with 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar. (optional - add chilli flakes to add extra favour)

DESSERT - CHIA SEED PUDDING

Makes 3 servings

300ml unsweetened almond milk
1 tbsp honey
4 tbsp chia seeds
1 tsp cinnamon

Combine all ingredients in a large jar a shake until combined.  Pour into 3 small bowls or glasses and refrigerate.  After around 30 mins, the mixture will have thickened to a pudding consistency.  Keep covered in the fridge until needed.
