Try this 5 day cleanse!

I know when you think of a cleanse "starvation" or "lack of food" probably pops into your mind. Well, this cleanse is not like that.  Dr. Junger's 5 day gut flush cleanse is designed for those of you who struggle with bloated mid-sections. For me, if I'm not drinking enough water or have been consuming too much sugar my mid-section can get out of hand.
I'm on day five of this cleanse and I must say, it's been one of the best cleanses I've tried (and I've tried all kinds of cleanses) and of course Dr. Oz approved!:) The recipes were tasty and different from what's usually on my weekly menu. If I had to choose a favorite recipe it would have to be the Thai Chicken Salad and the Vanilla Almond Shake on day three. I plan on incorporating those two recipes in my weekly diet. Overall, the cleanse did exactly what it claimed it would do, reduce mid-section bloat. Click here to get the entire cleanse

My Almond Vanilla Shake

Lamb Tacos

 

After Super Bowl Sunday, I thought it would be appropriate to participate in a cleanse with my good friend. I love this cleanse because you actually eat food! Well, yesterday the cleanse had us eating these lamb tacos and they were delish! Try them for yourself. I think you will be pleased.:)

 

Ingredients
4 oz. ground lamb
2 tbsp. extra virgin coconut oil
1 medium summer squash or zucchini
1/4 cup minced onions
1 tbsp. taco/fajita seasoning
Sea salt
Romaine lettuce
1/4 cup minced red onion
Freshly chopped cilantro
Freshly made guacamole  ( I didn't do the guacamole)

Directions:

Heat a large sauté pan over high heat. Melt the coconut oil and continue to heat until oil is lightly smoking.
Add the lamb and allow it to brown. Once the lamb has browned add the squash, onion, garlic, and taco seasoning. Stir well to incorporate all ingredients. Continue to cook through until all vegetables are soft. Taste, season with sea salt.

Serve on romaine lettuce.
