I made this specialty drink up for Brad and I. Doesn’t it look like an awesome drink? So red and yummy.
The first half of the glass I can down pretty good, but by the time I get to the second half I’m just thankful the bottom of the glass is near. It is freshly juiced carrots and beets. Quite the cleansing combo. 
We started a 21 day fast from sugar, processed foods, meat, and dairy. Today is day 8, and it feels like day 28.
14 more to go!
We had a great time camping last weekend with Brad’s brother Jason and his wife April. April used to be a camp counselor and shared a recipe with us.
The kids loved it!
Cut a wedge out of a Banana and fill it with Peanut Butter.
Add small marshmallows and mini chocolate chips. Wrap in tin foil, put in the coals and let it cook 5-10 mins. Then enjoy a yummy banana treat.
The other day, I was trying to think of an easy side for dinner. Something that didn’t take much time but was delicious. I remembered my mom’s yummy cucumber salad. Here is a recipe that won’t take you longer then 5 min. to throw together!
Unless you chop like molasses.
Cucumber Salad
2 Cucumbers
Large handful of cherry tomatoes
1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar (you can also use Apple Cider vinegar)
1 Tablespoon honey
Salt and Pepper to taste
Put your vinegar in a bowl, add the honey, stir it up. Add sliced cucumbers and tomatoes to the vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. I like to let it sit in the fridge for a couple hours, it lets the flavors mingle.
You can change this recipe so much. If you don’t have cherry tomatoes, just cut up whatever type you have. If you like it less tangy just add a little more honey.
Here’s another variation: Sometimes after it has set in the fridge for a couple hours I will drain the salad, and then add approx. 1 Tablespoon of Sour Cream. This is also delicious!
ENJOY!
