This recipe is for the preparation phase for Metabolic Balance – Phase 1
During this phase, for the first two days, you’re eating vegetables only and they don’t have to be the ones listed on your customized nutrition plan during the first phase. The idea is to eat only vegetables and omit protein and oils from your diet during these two days. You can use fresh or dried herbs to flavour your vegetables or soup. Please feel free to use any vegetables that you have on hand or want to use up.
This sample recipe is for illustration purposes and to give you an ideas of what you can use. Please add or omit any veggies, herbs and spices that you like.
What you need:
3L of organic vegetable broth (or homemade broth that is free of protein or simply water will work too)
Onions
Celery
Carrots
Peppers
Cauliflower
Broccoli
Mini potatoes
Thyme
Red pepper flakes
Curry powder
Oregano

What you do:
