Adding a little variety is nice.  This is Quinoa Salad.  Ingredients quinoa, mashed chick peas, sliced sweet peas, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, cucumbers, olive oil, lime, sea salt.

Quinoa is a great substitute for rice, even brown rice.  It has as many carbs as rice, but has more protein and unlike rice it has all 9 essential amino acids and is a complete protein. Very  Nice!

Detox Zucchini Spaghetti with Ground Turkey.  I have found that instead of grating the zucchini I slice the squash into 1/4" thick strips. Otherwise it turns into a mushy mesh.  I season the turkey heavily with lots of herbs and good sea salt to make sure it is the focal point of the dish.  I probaly added some random veggies to if as filler.  As always I squeeze lemon or lime on the  avocado for 

Ground Turkey tacos.  Tacos are always a great detox meal option.  Dont' be shy with the spices on the meat and salt.  Keep in mind Morton salt is not as healthy as a sea salt or Keltic Salt. There are a couple of contradictions as you may have noticed.  Rice and sour cream?  But, there is no cheese!  I don't judge myself but I try to stay as clean as possible when detoxing.

With the exception of one item (dessert) this is an ideal detox meal.  Notice the plate is one-half full of veggies (even more with the soup) and only a single protein option.  Eat tons of veggies with each detox meal to fill up, provide fiber and plenty of phytonutrients to power the liver.

This is a good detox meal.   Upper left of plate is a corn tortilla casserole with is a bit starchy but otherwise pretty good.  Two types of meat in one meal can place a bit of a digestive challenge on the stomach.  Otherwise it was yummy and showed good food choices.

This is not for a detox, but is what my breakfast looks like about half the time.  This is low calorie but full of nutrients.  Since a smoothie is blended it is a bit "pre-digested" so it creates mostly just energy and not stress on the body.  It's a great way to start the day.  I sometimes add some frozen pineapple, half a banana, or even a chunk of sweet potato too.  Oat milk is another option.
