Answer 1

GAZPACHO SOUP

3 cups tomatoes, red ripe, seeded and diced

2 cups red bell pepper, diced medium

2 cups red onions, diced medium

1/2 cup celery, diced medium

2 cups cucumber, diced medium

1 teaspoon garlic, minced

1/4 cup red wine vinegar

2 cups organic vegetable juice

pinch cayenne

1 teaspoon cumin

Method

Mix diced tomato, peppers, red onions, celery and cucumber together in a medium bowl. Divide the mixture in half and separate in two bowls.

Add garlic to one of the bowls and empty into blender. Add vinegar to the blender and puree until smooth.

Add the vegetable juice, cayenne and cumin to the blender. Blend.

Add the puree to the bowl of diced vegetables.

Refrigerate overnight.

A vegetable soup made with water and fresh vegetables such as tomato, cucumber, celery, carrots, and cabbage is a good choice for a detox diet, and you can eat as much of it as you want. Baked potatoes are also a good choice, as long as you avoid sour cream, butter, and other toppings. Vegetable stir fries made with brown noodles or brown rice and salads with either no dressing or one such as a balsamic vinegar are also good choices. Fresh fish can also be eaten while on a detox diet because certain types of fish contain no calories, and can be combined into a casserole with fresh fruit or vegetables.

A detox recipe consisting of fresh spinach, water, a banana, a celery stalk and a few slices of cucumber is an effective way to enhance your detox diet. Blending these ingredients into smoothie form and replacing two meals a day with these will not only help to get rid of toxins in your body, but may also double your amount of weight loss during the detox diet's time period.
