Raw revolution Day 2

The second day of my juice detox is coming to a close and I am grumpy. I was told that the hunger pangs would go away, but I am desperately craving something with a crunch!


Here are the recipes for the Juice's I had yesterday and today:


  • 2 apples
  • 2 kale leaves
  • 1 stick celery
  • 1/3 long cucumber
  • ½ beetroot

  • 3 carrots
  • 2 sticks celery
  • 1 bunch watercress
  • 1 large handful spinach

  • 3 carrots
  • ½ apple
  • ½ orange
  • ¼ beetroot
  • 1 stick celery
  • 2 large kale leaves
I am not going to lie. It has been a hard couple of days. On a positive note I DID make it to the gym yesterday, and I did 90 mins of Bikram Yoga this morning to further my detoxification process. I also snuck in a cheeky facial this afternoon which made me feel a ton better. Time to pop a DVD in so I can escape my reality.

Post Robbery cookies

Guilt-free choc chip cookies

3 bananas- mashed
2 cups rolled oats
2/3 cup ground almonds
1/3 cup coconut milk ( warmed slightly in the microwave so it isn't clumpy)
1/3 cup shredded coconut
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate pieces ( or whatever chocolate you would like to use)
Combine the bananas, vanilla essence, and (slightly warmed) coconut milk. Set aside. In another bowl whisk together the oats, ground almond, shredded coconut, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.The dough came out a bit wetter than normal cookie dough, but don't worry they still bake up fine. Drop balls of the dough onto baking paper and bake for about 12-15 minutes at 180 degrees.
I baked them for as long as I could without burning the bottoms and they came out lovely. Enjoy!
