5 Days of Whole Foods

Note: You'll notice a lot of repetition....it's just easier and creates less waste than something different every day.

Day 1

30 Clove Garlic Soup

Breakfast: Smoothie made from 1 cup unsweetened Almond Breeze almond milk, 1/2 cup frozen mixed organic berries, 1 frozen banana, 1 tbsp unsweetened peanut butter

Lunch: Arroz con pollo (1 cup cooked chicken, 2 cups rice, 1/2 cup lentils, onion, green onion, tomato, bell pepper and 4 cups of homemade chicken broth cooked together in a pan until liquid absorbed) topped with tomato, tomatillo, bell pepper and cubed avocado.

Snacks: Banana bread (made without dairy) with peanut butter, peach detox tea and an apple

Dinner: 30 Clove Garlic Soup, very yummy but the next time we eat this alone for dinner we'll probably add more potato

Day 2

Breakfast: Same smoothie as Day 1, added handful of spring mix lettuce

Lunch: Arroz con pollo

Snacks: Banana bread with peanut butter, apple, tea, fresh strawberries

Dinner: Cucumber Dill Soup

Day 3

Breakfast: Same as yesterday

Lunch: Same as yesterday

Snacks: Same as yesterday

Dinner: 30 Clove Garlic Soup

Day 4

Breakfast: Smoothie made with 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 cup frozen mixed berries, 2 handfuls spring mix lettuce, handful walnuts and a 1/2 teaspoon of honey 

Lunch: Same as yesterday! But, it's the last of it today so tomorrow will be something different, thank goodness

Snacks: Same as yesterday

Dinner: 30 Clove Garlic Soup...realized tonight that this soup may not be the best meal to eat 3 times during a 6 day healthy eating challenge! The garlic is super good for you and the potatoes aren't exactly bad for you but....it's essentially watered down garlic mashed potatoes :/ Live and learn!

Day 5

Breakfast: Smoothie made with 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, large handful of spring mix lettuce, 1 cup frozen mixed berries and a handful of walnuts

Lunch: Salad made with spring mix lettuce, roasted chicken, avocado, cucumber, tomato, and carrots

Snacks: Apple, banana bread and peach detox tea

Dinner: Edamame soup (pureed soybeans and spinach with almond milk and garlic)


We originally started this with the idea that we'd go for 7 days....the weekend is just too short to not enjoy a muffin and coffee in the park (see next post) so 5 days it is :) Still going to continue to buy healthy whole foods at the grocery store this week so it's not a total loss!
