Live it up, RAW!

I went to the doctor on Monday. He said he doesn't want me to start weaning from the Prednisone until I stop getting up at night. I am already improving big time so we will see how long. I am hoping less then a month.

After my doctors appointment I stopped at the health food store to pick something up for dinner (I had a late appointment and wasn't in the mood to cook). I bought a raw soft shell taco by Awesome Foods. This was pretty good, although a little dry.. I think it needed some salsa.
Here it is out of the package. It was pretty big and filling. I had a green juice along side of it to round out my meal.
Speaking of green juice, I can't get enough of it lately! Here's one I made for lunch yesterday: kale, clementine and orange. Sweet and tart. Perfect for the 90 degree day we had!
Also for lunch, I through together a veggie bowl. This was sprouts, avocado, Parma, sun dried tomatoes, olives and raw crackers. So tasty!
Last night for dinner I made my favorite: Rawcos! This time I had them on romaine leafs and raw crackers. I added avocados, onion, tomato and olives. In case you haven't noticed, I can't get enough of raw Mexican food!
Have a fabulous day everyone! I've got to get a move on, lots of errands and things to do today! Happy Hump Day!

Speaking of green juice, I can't get enough of it lately!I'd take that as a very good sign. Your body knows what it needs to heal itself. That's one craving you'll want to indulge! :D

Your rawcos look AMAZING! I'm drooling here :) I love using greens for wraps. Your green juice looks delish too, and so does your sprouty salad. It all looks so good! Please invite me over for a meal soon :)
