COOL CUCUMBER DAY

Some days are just cool, calm and captivating. A day like that deserves a RAW feast.

K.A.L.C Juice (kale.apple.lemon.cucumber)







Ingredients:

1 bunch of kale, stems removed
1 whole lemon
5 small red delicious apples
1 medium size cucumber

Juice all ingredients and enjoy. I really loved this, it was an incredibly satisfying breakfast.


For Breakfast little Miss decided to make a ice cream, her absolute favorite thing for breakfast.

Nina's Breakfast Ice Cream






Ingredients:

3 frozen bananas, peeled, cut in halves and frozen overnight in zip-lock bag
1 cup almond milk (she used the left over almond milk we made from a few days ago)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Put in a high speed blender and blend until it starts to look like soft serve ice cream. You may have to move the contents around with a spatula to get it going. Serve as is or top with fruits and/or nuts.


Cool Cucumber Salad







Ingredients: 

2 large cucumbers, sliced into1 inch thickness

Dressing:

1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 small lemon

Mix all ingredients well together and drizzle over cucumbers. Sprinkle a dash of black pepper over salad and garnish with some julienned beet root.


And for supper I came up with this refreshing soup, hmmmm...
