A detox diet is not a starvation diet. There is always a place for heartier fare. If juicing and blending aren’t your thing, there is so much you can do with simply incorporating more complete raw food meals into your regime. These recipes make great meals to stand alone, or you can try them in addition to your normal meal preparations.
Think of these dishes as extra special salads. The technique of spiral slicing is an easy and inexpensive way to mimic the feeling of pasta without all of the refined flour and gluten. You can take almost any of the salad recipes and substitute the lettuce for spiral noodles—et voilà you have pasta! The same goes for the grains. You can add quinoa or millet to any salad to make it more filling. The addition of grains in the fall and winter can be very beneficial in cooler climates. All of these recipes are perfect served in beautiful bowls with a delicious glass of wine.
