Juicing - Day 2

It's Day 2 and I'm feeling like myself again.

No longer in pain and my head is clear, less foggy. So happy to feel normal again, so I'm finishing off Day 3 tomorrow and will slowly return to grains over the next few weeks. In the meantime, I'll stock up on proteins, vegetables, and fruits. I've been craving stuffed vegetables, so this would be the perfect time to experiment with some dishes.

My breakfast today, the Green Lemonade, was a bit strong like yesterday's lunch. However, the Green Apple was delicious. If you need a new juice recipe, I would recommend it. And dinner was even better with the addition of chocolate, so this recipe is a keeper as well. The substitution of raw milk for the water would make it even more divine.
