Day 6: Soups + Smoothies
It was nice to start a day without drinking two tall glasses of saltwater. After drinking lemon water, I had a cup of ginger tea and made a smoothie. For lunch I ate the first of solid food, an avocado. I wasn't home all day so I was pretty hungry by 8pm when I did finally walk in the door, and had a heaping bowl of green soup (recipe in last post).
After that, I just broke and had a few "Red Hot + Blue" tortilla chips. Hey, can I remind you that cleansing ain't easy? Here's the recipe for the smoothie I had that day.
