Your face will cringe before your first sip. You’ll mentally prepare yourself for the grossest green gulp of your life. You’re nervous, it’s weird, you feel like a contestant on Fear Factor. After you muster up the courage to drink? Apples. All you taste is apple. And I describe this to everyone I “con” into drinking this concoction, but they don’t believe me until after their first sip. It’s a guaranteed “I told you so”.

Green Smoothie:

1 Apple

2 Kale Stalks

1 Handful of Grapes

1/2 Cucumber

1/2 Cup Water

1/2 Cup Ice

I deviated from my usual formula and added avocado to the first batch. Mistake! You couldn’t taste the avocado, but it turned the texture into something that resembled Gak.

When someone tells you that a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup is a staple in their diet, you may rush to assume that someone is a third grader. And although I may resemble a third grader in stature, I’d like to think my palette is a bit more developed. I’ll justify my progression by admitting that my nine year old self would have tantrum-ed at the sight of a green food on my sandwich.

My staple dish hit the spot tonight, it was indescribably perfect for my Monday meal finale.

– Organic Creamy Tomato Soup
– Sprouted Sourdough Toast
– Veggie American Cheese Slices
– Sliced Avocado, sprinkled with salt

Is that Gak?
