Week 1: Day 1

I am doing Dr. Furhman's Eat To Live 6 week challenge in pursuit of new habits and better health. I have been eating a fairly healthy plant based diet for a few years now, but I still have some bad habits. Too much sugar, white flour and oil. And not enough veggies and fruit. I could also probably lose 10 lbs, so if that happens then great! I will be posting what my meals look like each day. My focus is also on doing this as frugally as possible while loving the food I eat. I can't buy everything organic or from Whole Foods. I do most of my shopping at Trader Joes and Winco. Ok, on to what I ate on Day 1 of the challenge. I felt so great eating this food!

Breakfast:
Green smoothie- 1/2 bunch kale, blueberries, mango, banana, flax, unsweetened almond milk

Lunch:
Huge Salad- romaine, shredded carrot, cucumber, tomato, red onion, chickpeas and this dressing:

1/4 cup water 
Juice from 2 lemons
1/4 nutritional yeast 
1/4 cup miso 
1/4 date syrup or maple syrup
1/4 cup dijon mustard 

Honey crisp apple with cinnamon

Dinner:
Fresh Broccoli Teriyaki Stir Fry with tofu
1/2 cup brown rice

Dessert:
Chocolate Cherry Ice Cream (frozen cherries, date, cocoa, almond milk)
