Spring Clean Eating Program

We started eating Clean again and I am trying my best to make it an easy thing to do. First of all, Dr. Junger and his Clean Program are INCREDIBLE! He's a cardiologist turned integrative, holistic practitioner who developed a program that is accessible to everyone. The Clean detox takes out the following:
Dairy
Soy
Corn
Sugar
Beef and Pork
Gluten Grains
Citrus
Nightshades
Certain beans
Coffee
Alcohol

I'm doing the Clean Program, Justin is doing the Clean Detox. The difference is I eat everything I want that is included when I want. He drinks his breakfast and dinner and eats a full-lunch. The first thing you have to do is follow this grocery list:

The next step is to follow the menu plan on their website or look up Clean program recipes. Join their community and they're always ready to help you.

This is a reboot to your system and this time we're doing this for 10 days. Last time we did this all kinds of rough stuff came out of our bodies, minds and hearts. It was grand. We also discovered new ways to have fun, which included dancing and lots of sober talks. This time I hope for lots of ball hitting, golf and base/soft, shopping and coffee shop sitting while sipping tea.

So far our recipes include:

Dinner: Broccoli "Cheese" Leek Soup - cheese is made with nutritional yeast
