Ultimate Reset Day 20

Day 20: FEELING GREAT!!

Down 8 pounds, movin' and groovin' digestion, mentally clear, and high energy!! Not hungry at all, today, and just feeling upbeat! Maybe it's because I know I only have one more day of the Ultimate Reset (21 day cleanse)!! Ha-ha!!

It was a low key day at home. The boys had sleep overs last night, and stayed up late, and it was rainy and raw, here. So, we spent the afternoon snuggled under a blanket on the couch, watching TV. BUT, I took a break to do some yoga, streamed it from the 3-Week Yoga Retreat from Beachbody On Demand.

Today's Menu:

8 am: 24 oz water with Mineralize, and Optimize, and Revitalize supplements

9 am: Breakfast - Fresh fruit plate (3 cups of fruit!) 

• Thoughts: While I love fruit, I really miss eggs, and yogurt. And, because it's cold and rainy outside, I'm missing a hot breakfast. 

2 hours later: 24 oz water with Mineralize, and Optimize, and Revitalize supplements

1 pm: Lunch - Microgreen Salad with Pumpkin Seeds and Miso Soup

2 hours later: Power Greens powder with water

No snack today, because I didn't teach any fitness classes today, and other than yoga, my butt sat on the couch most of the day!! ....missing my Vegan Shakeology.

2 hours later: Mineralize, Optimize, Soothe, and Revitalize supplements

6:30 pm Dinner - Asian Stir Fry Veggies and Braised Greens

• Thoughts: Love Asian Veggie stir fry, but braised greens are about as tasty as steamed kale....choked those down.

SO EXCITED THAT TOMORROW IS MY LAST DAY!!

Sweet Potato Red Pepper Soup

I had this on Day 9 and Day 10 of the Ultimate Reset and it made my meal! Thick, but light, with fresh, grated, ginger giving this soup a bit of zest! So easy to make.
This soup is gluten free, dairy free, egg free, paleo, and vegan.
I hope you enjoy it!

Serves 1

INGREDIENTS

1 sweet potato (aka garnet yam)
¼ red bell pepper
1 cup vegetable broth or water
1 tsp. finely grated peeled ginger root
1½ tsp. extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp. miso paste, diluted in 1 tsp. hot water
Tamari or Bragg® Liquid Aminos, Himalayan salt, and herbal seasoning (to taste)

PREPARATION

1. Peel and cube sweet potatoes. (I left the skins on for the sake of time). 
2. Cook in boiling water until tender. Drain and set aside. 
3. Meanwhile, roast a whole red bell pepper on gas stovetop, or grill, turning frequently until evenly charred on the outside OR in your oven at 400 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes, turning every 10 minutes or until skin is charred.
4. Put pepper in bowl and cover with towel for 10 minutes to steam. (I skipped this step, again, because of time). 
5. Clean off skin and seeds by running under cool water. Remove seeds, cut in quarters, and chop one quarter into ½-inch cubes. (Set remainder of pepper aside for another use.)
6. Place sweet potato, pepper, broth or water, ginger, oil, and miso in blender. (If you want chunky soup, set aside some chunks of pepper.) Blend thoroughly, adding more liquid to achieve desired soup consistency. 
7. Transfer to a pot and gently heat on low until hot. Add tamari or aminos, salt, and seasoning as desired.

Zucchini Cashew Soup

This is a recipe I had on Day 6 and Day 7 of the Ultimate Reset, a 21 day cleanse, I'm doing, which I started the Monday after Easter.

This soup was one of the recipes that saved me! Creamy, and flavorful, I wanted to make 4 more servings! It's also easy and quick to prepare, although the cashews have to soak for at least an hour. But I set them aside, went and did other things and let them soak!

The recipe below is for one serving.

INGREDIENTS

1 large or 2 small zucchini, cut into chunks and steamed
¼ cup raw cashews
Himalayan salt or Bragg® Liquid Aminos (to taste)
Lots of fresh dill (to taste)

PREPARATION

1. Soak cashews in enough water to cover for 1 hour. 

2. Boil one cup of water. Add chunks of zucchini to water and continue to boil about 4-5 minutes. 

3. Combine cashews, cashew water, drained zucchini, salt or aminos, and dill in blender and mix until smooth, adding water as needed for desired consistency. 

**For chunky soup, add steamed chopped vegetables of your choice. 

**Can also be served cold. 

**I thought I added enough dill, but when I made a second batch I added even more and it was much better!

New SHAKEOLOGY flavors!!

In January 2017, Beachbody announced they created two new Shakeology flavors that would be launched in spring. Shakeology lovers tried to guess what the new flavors would be, and now we know!! Vegan Vanilla and Vegan Cafe Latte.

These vegan flavors now give us FOUR vegan selections, and a total of NINE total Shakeology flavors!! 

Vegan flavors include: 

• Vegan Tropical Strawberry
• Vegan Chocolate
• Vegan Vanilla
• Vegan Cafe Latte

Non-vegan flavors include:

• Strawberry
• Chocolate
• Vanilla
• Cafe Latte
• Greenberry 

Shakeology was one of the reasons I became a coach with Beachbody. My husband was buying muscle and protein shakes at GNC or Sam's, and when I looked at the ingredients they were filled with sugar and artificial ingredients, or soy, or chemicals. I researched for awhile and discovered Shakeology. I also researched each ingredient in Shakeology. I found it was made from WHOLE FOODS, and FREE OF ---->

• soy
• chemicals
• artificial sweeteners
• artificial anything
• gluten
• sugar

It's just whole foods, naturally sourced... BUT, before I bought it I was skeptical of how it would taste. Was it going to be a waste of money?

Nope!!! We've now been drinking Shakeology for almost three years!! It helped to to cut out my cravings for junk food, and gives my body nutrients missing in my diet. I don't buy any other vitamins, supplements or probiotics because of this. I have an autoimmune disorder, and I believe because of Shakeology, my symptoms have decreased! I have less swelling in my body, my digestive system has improved, and I see it in my clearer skin!!  I encourage you to try it if your nervous. The best part is that it is backed by a 30 day money back guarantee so if it's not working for you simply send it back.

When I tell people about Shakeology, they say it's too expensive....well at full price this meal replacement shake costs about $4 per day for a whole meal! THAT alone is a deal. BUT, I found an even better deal to bring down the price to about $3 per day. A Starbucks coffee costs more!! Check out here how you can afford to drink Shakeology. My question is, in terms of your health, how can you afford not to?

WHY VEGAN?

I have been waiting anxiously for vegan vanilla, because I'm a vanilla lover! Some people love the chocolate, but I'm not a fan of chocolate foods overall. So, why vegan over non-vegan vanilla? If you struggle with digesting dairy, or have any form of lactose or dairy intolerance, this formula is gentler on the stomach and digestive system.

NEW INGREDIENTS

The new flavors also are going to contain two new ingredients that are not currently already in the other flavors of Shakeology. These new ingredients are chaga and matcha.

Chaga is a mushroom that’s considered an adaptogen. Adaptogens have been traditionally used to help the body adapt and respond to effects of stress. Chaga grows on birch trees in very cold climates and is also often made into tea. The chaga we use in Shakeology comes from an American supplier that is USDA organic certified.

You might have tried matcha before if you’ve ever had a Matcha Green Tea Latte. Matcha is the powdered whole green tea leaf. It’s been enjoyed in Japan for centuries. The matcha we use in Shakeology also comes from a family-owned supplier that is USDA organic certified.

The new flavors, just like the other flavors come in a 30 serving bag of one individual flavor or a combo box which with 24 packets of two to three different flavors. These are available now in the United States and are coming in May to Canada and soon INTERNATIONALLY!!

Shakeology Fudgesicles

Saw this recipe on the Shakeology Instagram feed, and decided to try it. That recipe used Cafe Latte flavor, which is probably delicious with the chocolate chips the recipe calls for, and also the next creation I will try as soon as I buy more freeze pop trays. Everyone in my family loves these, but I only have one tray which makes four pops. I'm going to buy two more trays so I make three different flavors at once! This is the perfect, healthy summer after dinner treat for the whole family!

Recipe makes 4 pops

Ingredients: 

2 scoops Vegan Chocolate (or regular Chocolate) Shakeology - I used Vegan.
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
2 TBSP mini semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions:

1. Place all ingredients in a blender.
2. Blend until all mixed.
3. Spoon into popsicle molds.
4. Freeze for four hours.
5. Remove from mold and enjoy!

I'm already thinking about adding in bananas, or making it with vanilla Shakeology and orange juice for a creamsicle, or Vegan Tropical Strawberry Shakeology with strawberries, coconut, and banana....so many possibilities!!

Baked Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

I got the idea for the recipe from the The Master's Hammer and Chisel Program meal plan recipes. That version has a Mexican flavored twist to it, but I left out the beans, cumin, coriander, and cilantro, using spices my family and I prefer more.

The Master's Hammer and Chisel program uses the same meal plan as the 21 Day Fix, with the color coded, portion control containers.

The beauty of this recipe is it's versatility, and adaptability to any flavor palate using herbs and spices specific to your taste.  Also, it was quick to make, because I had cooked a big batch of my Everything Chicken on Sunday night, to have on hand for the week. I served these with a side of my Garlic Chili Roasted Broccoli. Enjoy. Drop me a comment if you make this recipe!

Makes 2 Servings
Container equivalents per serving:
1 red
1 yellow
1/2 green
1 tsp

INGREDIENTS
2 small sweet potatoes
1.5 cups shredded chicken - already seasoned (can substitute cooked white or black beans for the chicken, to make this dish vegan)
2 cups raw spinach, sauteed in 1 tsp olive or coconut oil and one clove minced garlic
1 dash sea salt
pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Bake sweet potatoes for 35 to 45 minutes or until tender. Cut sweet potatoes almost in half lengthwise.
3. Scoop out some of the inside of the cooked sweet potato and place in a mixing bowl.
4. Add warmed chicken (or beans) to the bowl, sauteed spinach, salt, pepper, and any other spices you'd like, and mix ingredients together.
5. Scoop mixture into each sweet potato.
6. Serve immediately.

21 Day Fix: Fixate Cookbook

The Fixate Cookbook Launch!
Yep, you read this right! To take the guesswork out of how many containers are in your favorite recipes, Autumn Calabrese, creator of the 21 Day Fix is launching a new cook book called Fixate.  It includes 101 Fix friendly recipes and will be available on July 14!

Fixate will teach you how to make healthy, delicious meals that fit into your busy lifestyle. And every recipe includes container equivalents to use with 21 Day Fix, as well as nutritional information you can use with any Beachbody fitness program. So what inspired Autumn to assemble this culinary masterpiece?

Each of the recipes comes complete with detailed instructions, mouthwatering photos, nutritional information and container equivalents. What's more, Autumn has added icons to each recipe that will let readers know if they are paleo, gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian.

Who this is for?
"This book is for everybody," says Autumn. "You don't have to be graduates of 21 Day Fix or 21 Day Fix EXTREME^®. You also don't have to be a chef or great in the kitchen. It's for anyone who wants to make healthier versions of the foods they love."
According to Autumn, "Everyone will use the book differently. For some, it will become their "go-to" cookbook they use every single day. Others may use it when they're going to a special event like a barbeque or party."
And in addition to all the amazing recipes, Autumn has also included a detailed checklist for her absolute must-have kitchen and pantry staples, as well as the basic utensils and tools that every cook needs.

 

What to Expect

Inside Fixate you'll find a section for every possible meal you can imagine: simple breakfasts, on-the-go lunches, sit down dinners, soups, salads, as well as healthy snacks like kale chips and protein bars.
Autumn insisted that all the "on-the-go" lunch recipes be easy and fast for working moms. "I based all of the lunches off leftovers from dinner and even breakfast," she reveals. "I turned them into delicious, easy-to-make lunch recipes." Autumn adds, "I also included a few of my favorite Shakeology recipes—even some Fix-approved skinny cocktails."
And then there's the desserts. "I have a big sweet tooth so I was really pleased with them," she says. "I especially love the brownies (made with chick peas), peanut butter cookies and cake recipes, and the desserts are all gluten-free so absolutely everyone can enjoy them."


And it gets even better!!!
