Fat Free Carrot Tomato Curry Soup



I create my best recipes when I'm having a craving and only have a few items in the house. This soup in fat free, simple and delicious! Not to mention cleansing and filling!


1 pkg Sundried tomatoes (3.5oz)

1/2 cups carrot/parsley/ginger juice - (1 inch ginger, 1 bunch parsley, 12 or more carrots)

1/4 jalepeno (optional)

2c warm or room temp water (distilled is best)


I strained my juice and poured it over the tomatoes in my blender add added 2 cups of water.

I blended it until slighty warmed.


It is spicy from the ginger. I loved the hint of jalepeno. I wasn't sure how to spice this. It was good plain. It needed no salt. I could have added a hint of garlic, but wasn't in the mood for that flavor. I have never been a curry fan, but I wanted something different. I added a slight sprinkle of curry powder over the top and BLISS....!!!


I love when the simple creations totally hit the mark for me. This is a keeper for sure!

Day 14 of Phase One (Fruits, Veg, Juice, Smoothies)




Hello!

Today I enjoyed:

Shredded carrots, diced apple & raisins splashed with fresh orange juice for a dressing.

I had a quart of LJB (lemon ginger blast green juice)

I also had a Tbl of peanut butter with raisins (which I'm trying to stay away from the fat).

Sometimes I feel I'm not satiated if I don't have some fatty like nut butter or dense like bananas. I actually feel better when I eat high water content fruits and veggies.

I have had the hugest craving to eat celery lately. I put a tiny bit of peanut butter on it and loaded it with raisins. Then I didn't want the nuts and tried making a fat-free dipping sauce. It was blended zucchini with orange bell pepper with some nutritional yeast and a tiny pinch of salt. I was hoping it would have more flavor without having to add the nutritional yeast and sea salt. It was OK....

I'm doing good with the God's Herbs....I want green smoothies. :-)

Phase 1: Fruits, green veggie juices, green smoothies. veggies. - No salt, fat or spices.
Phase 2: Mono fruit meals
Phase 3: Fruit and veggies juices only

I will do this while being aware of what my body wants. If I have to change things up to make it work for me I will. I'll be posting what I consume also. I have done a 60 day low glycenic juice feast and now it's on to the fruits...a personal experiment with my blood sugars and healing on this program.

Thanks for coming along for the ride. :-)

Gastroparesis - Healing The Bloat

If you have gastroparesis PLEASE consider adding FRESH strained fruit and vegetetable juices to your diet. Drinking fresh juices exclusively for 60 days reversed all my gastropresis and colonic inertia symptoms after 8 years of suffering with vomiting, bloating and pain.
