Natural whole body cleansing operates along a broad spectrum. On the more progressive end of this cleansing spectrum, your days are filled with fresh pressed juices and smoothies. However, a gentle whole body cleanse can also include live, organic foods. Roasted veggies, quality lean meats, fish and some dairy balance out the detoxification work inspired by fresh juices and smoothies. Who wouldn’t love to have natural cleansing foods arrive, fresh, at your door each morning? But let’s face it, that can get expensive. A crazy schedule can also impede your best efforts to eat well. For super busy days invest in a frozen dinner or two. Kashi Sweet and Sour Chicken, prepared in the following way, can be a suitable frozen dinner option that is detox-diet friendly.

• Option 1: Add additional vegetables and a salad to this meal
  • Sautée half of a red bell pepper and 1 cup of pre-chopped broccoli and add these veggies to your meal
  • Also consider placing your Kashi Sweet and Sour Chicken entrée with additional veggies on top of a small salad to really ramp up the cleansing power of this meal

  
  

• Option 2: Enjoy this entrée as two meals. (This is preferred by Detox Divas.)
  • You will find the chicken is placed on one side of the frozen entrée and the rice and veggies are on the other side. Detox Divas would eat the chicken portion of the entrée separately from the rice and veggie portion. These divas believe if you eat your proteins and starches separately (according to the basic principles of food combining) you can then ramp up your bod’s detoxification and slimming work.
  • In this scenario, sautée half of a red bell pepper and 1 cup of pre-chopped broccoli and enjoy these veggies with your chicken. Save the remaining veggie + rice portion of your Kashi meal for the next day. Remaining veggies and rice would be great tucked into romaine lettuce leaves or sprinkled on top of a salad. Lightly sautéed carrots and scallions would also compliment your remaining veggies + rice nicely.
