Breakfast: Green smoothie (spinach and a mix of tropical fruit)
Lunch: big Mexican salad (mixed greens, Mexican veggie nut stuffer, salsa, and avocado)
Mid-afternoon snack: glass of milk
Dinner: Coconut cashew pudding
Mid-evening snack: Tangerine
By far the coolest moment of the day was when I was holding my little 17 month old son, Benjamin, on my lap while eating lunch and discovered that he LOVED my salad!!!! We ended up sharing it bite for bite. :-D I can't say that he's been an all raw baby, but he's definitely eaten a lot more raw food than cooked food thus far in his life.
Last night I downloaded a really great looking FREE raw food ebook. I'm excited about it and looking forward to trying some new recipes from it, including Chocolate Mint snack balls. :-) You can get it too at www.raw-pleasure.com.au.
What I found really amazing is how despite being in this exhaustion phase of early pregnancy, I got that huge rush of energy yesterday that has always come when I eat raw. I didn't even know that was possible during my first trimester. I woke up today still feeling GREAT!
Love, Dawn
