7 Day Must Have Superfoods Diet

Well it’s finally here folks 😀 …

This diet uses all of our must have superfoods plus many more.  It’s a 7 day diet designed to detox, cleanse and boost the immune system, break food addictions, especially starches and sugars and pave the way for a healthier new diet for life.

There should be no substitutions other than those listed and no additional food.

Sorry … no alcohol for a week but hey, it’s only 7 days and you can expect to lose up 10 lbs, possibly even more.

Your last meal of the day should be no later than 7pm and preferably before 6pm.  Between your last meal and bedtime, drink 4 mugs of green tea.

On Rising drink a half litre of water (can be warm, cold, still or sparkling) with the juice of half a lemon or PLJ

30 minutes later for Breakfast

1 pink grapefruit plus either 1 boiled egg or a handful of walnuts

Mid Morning

A mug of fennel tea

Lunch

A huge salad using as many as possible of the following ingredients:

Super Food Salad

  • rocket
  • watercress
  • baby leaf spinach
  • other seasonal leafy salad greens
  • dandelion leaves
  • cherry tomatoes
  • radish
  • cucumber
  • onion
  • celery
  • grated carrot
  • grated beetroot

Place all ingredients into a mixing bowl and add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, black pepper and salt to taste and toss well.

Now choose just 1 of the following sources of protein … try to vary this daily:

  • 2 rough chopped hard boiled eggs
  • 150g full fat cottage cheese
  • 160g tin of tuna drained of water and flaked
  • 1 sliced avocado pear
  • 160g tin of salmon drained of water and flaked
  • 125g of either chicken, turkey, ham finely chopped

Miracle Super Foods Diet Preotein

Add your chosen protein to the salad, along with 1 tablespoon of seeds and toss again … now simply enjoy.

As an alternative to adding one of the above proteins to the salad you can choose 100g of any meat fried in a teaspoon of butter and have the salad on the side … if there are any juices left in the pan, drizzle them over the salad for extra taste!

Mid Afternoon

Mug of fennel tea

Dinner

As much Super Food Soup as you want (no bread or anything with it) followed by desert which is:

150 – 200g pot of full fat plain live yoghurt mixed with 1 teaspoon of real honey and 1/2 to one teaspoon of cinnamon and 1 small banana served in one of the following ways:

  • mash the banana, cinnamon and honey together and stir through the yoghurt
  • stir the cinnamon and honey into the yoghurt and add chopped banana
  • stir the cinnamon and honey into the yoghurt and eat the banana separately
  • slice the banana in half lengthways and place flat side down in an ovenproof dish sprinkle with cinnamon and drizzle with honey.  Grill until golden and warm and serve the yoghurt on the side.

Miracle SuperFood Diet Desert Full Fal Plan Yoghurt Banana Cinnamon Honey

Follow with the first of your 4 mugs of green tea before bedtime 🙂

Try to allow at least 4 hours between each meal … finish each meal in one go and no snacking in between.

If you want to you can use a dollop of your yoghurt to add to your soup.

I will talk more to you later about using this diet for longer and about alternative recipies but for now … just enjoy week one and please do let us know how you get on. 🙂 x

Charcoal Grilled Swordfish Steak

CHARCOAL GRILLED SWORDFISH STEAK
The sauce is a mix of avocado, onion, peppers, vinegar, olive oil, cilantro, and sambal oelek, a ready-made chile sauce that adds a little tang as well as heat. It comes together in minutes, while the fish is cooking on the grill.

INGREDIENTS
1 eight ounce, ¾-inch-thick swordfish steak, skin and bloodline removed
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
6 Tbsp olive oil
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and diced
1 Tbsp very finely diced red onion
1 tsp very finely diced serrano pepper
4 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp lime juice
1 Tbsp sambal oelek
2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
4 oz fresh shelled crabmeat

DIRECTIONS
Build a charcoal fire under a grill and let the flames die out.
Season the swordfish with salt and pepper, to taste, and brush lightly on both sides with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Grill the swordfish for 4 minutes on each side for medium to medium-rare.
In a bowl, combine the avocado, onion, peppers, vinegar, lime juice, sambal, cilantro, and remaining olive oil. Season with salt, to taste. Place the swordfish in the center of a plate. Top with the avocado mixture and place the fresh crab on top of the avocado mixture. Serve immediately.
