Nice spicy juice to start the day!!!
2 small organic apples
1/2 organic beet
nub of organic ginger (more or less depending on how spicy you like your juice!)
Apples are high in vitamin A and add a nice sweetness to the juice. Beets are also high in vitamin A as well being a good source of potassium. Beets are considered to be a good liver, kidney, and gallbladder cleanser. Ginger is a great anti-inflammatory and aids in digestion. Drink up!
I found a recipe for an avocado pasta salad on the internet, but I wanted to change it up some. So here is my recipe. This salad has a nice lemony thyme dressing:
1/2 cup Organic Mayo (I like Trader Joe's)
juice of one small lemon
1 tsp sugar
pinch of dried thyme (or 1 tsp of fresh thyme if you have it)
2 Tb olive oil
Whisk the above ingredients well and mix with:
1 Tb diced roasted red pepper
1 diced avocado
6 oz of cooked pasta
I ate a good portion right after I mixed it up. I ate the left overs the next day and the avocadoes stayed fairly green. Enjoy!
