Yesterday marked the 4th day of my cleanse. The symptoms (HUNGER) didn't get any better, in fact, I think it got worse. I was dizzy and slowly dying inside, my stomach hated me for being me. So i chugged the last 32 oz. of that evil drink, and decided that I'm going to make a yummy quinoa salad for dinner!
So here we are....430pm, my house, hands are shaking...couldn't stand straight...But for the sake of dinner, I was strong!! haha so dramatic...
Winnie's Quinoa Salad
First, I chopped up green onions, and cilantro, and place them in a bowl
(it's like Christmas)
Then, I chopped up mushrooms, spinach, and red onions, and I sauteed them in a little bit of coconut oil
Then I added in the quinoa that I boiled with a little bit of chicken broth. Mixed them all together, added in some balsamic vinegar, sea salt to taste...OH. EM. GEE. I don't know if I was just freaking out because I havent really eaten in a couple of days...or if it's really THAT good... whatever it is, I found it earth shattering.
It's nice because the coconut oil wasn't over powering the rest of the ingredients, and you can still taste the subtle tropical flavor.I kindda wish I had garlic to add in there, it would just make it THAT much better.
But even without it, it's already pact with flavors. I am content.
So here is the final product :)
Food is good.
OMG, it sounds so good! O_O
