Detox Fruit Water and What I Ate Wednesday

Happy Wednesday loves! This week is going by pretty fast.

Today I’m sharing this fruit-infused detox water to quench your thirst and keep you hydrated throughout the upcoming summer months! Of course, its What I Ate Wednesday too, I just couldn’t resist. I’m sure you’ve seen this fruit water alllll over Pinterest. How have I not tried this until now?! I’m sharing my fave combinations with you, but there are so many ways to mix it up.

Basically, just throw (yes throw hah) your favorite fruits in a mason jar with some herbs, cool water and voilá! Your new water creation looks beautiful and tastes soo soo refreshing! Detox Water recipes are below, after What I Ate Wednesday.

Before breakfast, you already know I start out with a large glass of water with fresh lemon juice and then some coffee with almond milk and coconut sugar! Instead of my usual smoothie or green juice, I had a HUGE plate of watermelon and grapes. I just did not feel like making a smoothie at all and I am learning more about food combining, so I thought I would try a huge plate of fruit instead. I definitely could not finish all of it though, I ate about half and saved the rest. Why did I put so much fruit on the plate??!! I have no idea.. haha. I got ahead of myself. 

I snacked on some pumpkin seeds and a larabar too, after breakfast. For lunch, I made a simple veggie pita! Inside was cucumber, red pepper, spinach, purple cabbage and dijon mustard. Then some carrots and hummus on the side. And my detox fruit water!! YUM! Chuy snuck in the picture too. 

I was scrolling through instagram and came across a competition hosted by @LoveLiveRaw and I could not resist! The competition was to make her Raw Crunchy Snickers Shake, then take a picture and tag her on your insta photo with the #makemyshake hashtag. I believe the competition is still open if you want to check it out or try for yourself. Which I totally recommend because this shake is to die for!!!! Seriously. You can find the recipe on her instagram page. I want to say I made this shake for Marty because he could live off of snickers but lets be honest, I had about half of it. He had to put his family dog down in the afternoon so he was sad about that 🙁 and I thought this could cheer him up a bit. Her name was Lulu, she was a black lab, but more like a big black bear because she was huuuuge!!! And the sweetest dog too. But here is my Snickers creation. Nom. 

I forgot to take a picture of dinner! It was pretty late though and nothing new, really. Just a romaine salad with grape tomatoes, red onion, black olives, avocado and a couple pieces of tempeh. With a simple vinaigrette dressing. 

Now onto the Detox Fruit Water. You will love the flavor the fruits and herbs add to the water!! There are so many ways to make this too. The water on the left is strawberry, blueberry and mint. The water on the right is watermelon, cucumber and rosemary. Next time I may try lemon slices with orange slices. What is your favorite combo?! Stay hydrated and enjoy!
