Raw for 24 hours - complete menu

I have been 85% raw for weeks… and then 95% raw for 2 days… but today I managed 100% raw I think - and I feel great!

Every once in a while it's a good idea to detox from normal foods and go 100% raw. Some people suggest to do it weekly or even monthly.

This is my menu:

Breakfast: peach and pear smoothie
Snack: dry fruit (mostly sultanas) and peanuts
Lunch: a super tasty mushroom soup and then fruit and a large salad
Snack: fruit
Dinner: spring rolls made with lettuce leaves (for the wrapper) filled with veggies
Mixed salad with cucumbers and radish
Fruit salad with one whole pineapple and lots of grapes
Raw ice-cream made with bananas and summer berries
Recipes....and photos.

This menu would be okay for a one day detox only. It is too high in fruit sugars and if you want to improve it, do substitute the fruit with avocado and more substantial vegetables. Being slender, I don't mind…


Mushroom soup:
Provides 1 serving

1. Blend 2 cups of water and 1/2 cup of cashews
2. Leave the cashew milk you've achieved inside the blender
3. Add 1 cup mushrooms, 1/2 onion (go easy on that unless it's pre-cooked!) and 1 clove of garlic (same as per onions)
4. Add 1 grain of Himalayan salt
5. Mix! It's ready!
6. If you want, warm it up gently.

Spring rolls:

- choose some round lettuce leafs which are large enough to be able to wrap things inside
- fill them with sliced veggies of your choice (I used mung bean sprouts, mushrooms, etc)
- add your favourite sauce (Soy sauce or sweet and sour...)
- fill each leaf with some veggies, roll up, use tooth picks to hold them in place and eat quickly!

It's a cold dish, however I wouldn't be surprised if it tasted better after 1 hour in my Ezidri!


Raw ice-cream

Definitely a 10/10

- slice one banana and put into the freezer in a container
- open up a can of summer fruit berries or if you are lucky, get the equivalent in fresh fruit
- put all the contents of a can in a separate container and in the freezer
- after 3 hours, take them out and put them in the high powered blender
you will obtain a very creamy smoothie which you can already eat
if you CAN wait, put the mix in the freezer for longer, mix, etc until the consistency of an ice-cream is reached.
Yummy!
