Tonight was my first night cooking in a week so I decided to make something I’ve been craving. Tofu Piccata 💚🙌🏽 In a lightly oiled pan I seared off some cubes super firm tofu. I didn’t press or season first, no need for this. Once it was golden I added a few pads of vegan butter, plenty of crushed garlic, a few tablespoons of capers, sea salt, fresh cracked pepper and finely diced onion. I let that sauté for a bit until the onions were translucent then I added about a cup of good white wine (make sure that’s vegan as well because they are not generally). I cooked off the wine then added another pad of butter and some olive oil to give it a glossy finish. I served it over zucchini noodles. They are pretty straight forward I just spiral them then salt and let them rest for 15/20 minutes to draw out the moisture. Squeeze out the liquid then sautéed in the same pan I made the sauce until al dente. I also made a vegan Ceasar salad and some roasted cauliflower to go along with this. My Ceasar dressing: Soaked raw cashews, Dijon, capers + the brine, vegan Worcestershire, cracked pepper, lemon juice and olive oil with a bit of follow your heart vegan parm.

Hey all! Just checking in to see if anyone else is doing their cleanse over the weekend Friday/Saturday/Sunday? I’m getting all my shopping done today and juicing tomorrow. I’ve enjoyed being able to watch you guys during the process this week, cudos to you all for going strong and doing something powerful for yourself! In preparation I’ve been eating super clean (no refined sugars, oils or heavy starches), drinking my tea & chlorophyll and limiting my caloric intake. Stepped on the scale this morning and I am 10lbs down after 1 week! Excited to start juicing and catch up to you all. I’d love to share some of the healthy recipes I’ve been eating all week with you but didn’t want to be insensitive and post food while you all were cleansing.

It’s day 3. How’s everyone doing? I hope everyone’s day is going well. I started the day strong but started feeling tired late this afternoon. I also got a slight headache for the first time. I drank more juice and water and decided to take it easy the rest of the day. I’d luv to hear how y’all’s last is shaping up.

Super excited I have made it to this point on my journey! No food and still going! Today will be busy, but excited to get to the other side of my fast! Let's GO!

Hey Glow Up family! How is everybody feeling?? I appreciate you all sharing your experiences with the group. It means a lot to me that the community is so supportive of one another. I know Day 3 can be the toughest so I appreciate everyone pushing through and finishing strong! I feel really good today, lighter and more focused, but my cravings to eat are on 100. My son was in the kitchen making veggie burgers and I made a lemon basil garlic pasta for him. Everything smelled so good, my mouth was literally watering. 😂 My brother @William Dougan is also doing the 3-Day juice cleanse with us (he lives in Atlanta) and he has vast knowledge and experience in the areas of fasting and natural healing. Last night he told me this juice cleanse has been a breeze for him and I'm like of course it has lol I'm excited to have him in the community, he has a wealth of information to share about health, especially for men. He reminded me of this excellent documentary called "Fat Sick and Nearly Dead" (see the link attached). It's the journey of an Australian man who was just that...fat, sick and nearly dead. He comes to the United States to travel across the country while only drinking juice for 60 days. It's an incredible story, and although extreme, it's an excellent testament to the power of healing the body naturally. Looking forward to seeing you all on the call tonight at 6:30pm pst! https://us04web.zoom.us/j/75397913916?pwd=a4TcIfsWNngvZCIxR444REOnzkzbjL.1
