Introduction
How To Use Recipes In This Booklet
This e-booklet contains meal replacement green smoothie and
dinner or lunch recipes as well as healthy snacks and is intended
to serve as a recipe companion for the 30-Day Diet Reboot
Program.

Meal replacement smoothie recipes are designed to replace a


meal preferably breakfast and/or lunch. Each one has at least
350 calories so that they will provide enough energy to fuel
workouts and keep you satisfied until your next meal. Most of
them have at least 10 grams of protein as well as some healthy
fat.

The green smoothie recipes are divided into three sections


350-calorie, 400-calorie and 500-calorie. I have organized these
recipes in approximate calorie content to help you plan meals
based on your unique calorie requirements for weight loss.

To make each recipe, simply add your liquid and fruit to a


blender. Then hit the pulse button to mix the fruit into sludge.
Then cut and add the greens. Finally, blend on high for 30-45
seconds or until smooth.

If you are using a high-end blender such as the Blendtec,


OmniBlend or Vitamix, then you can add all of the ingredients to
your blender and blend on high for about 30 second.

A lot of these meal replacement smoothie recipes call for nut


milks, which you can easily make yourself in your blender. Ive
included links within the recipes to the nut milk recipes on
Incredible Smoothies.

Some of these meal replacement smoothies also call for a protein


powder. Protein powder helps make the smoothie more
satisfying, and helps boost your protein intake to recover from
workouts that you should be doing while losing weight.

|Page 4 |
Just about any protein powder will do, but I recommend Epic
Protein by Sprout Living or NutriBiotic vegan rice protein. You
can also use hemp, brown rice or any other sprouted, plant-
based protein powder. I dont use or recommend whey, soy or
egg white protein powders.

To serve, add a pinch of sea salt and tablespoon of olive oil to


the vegetables. Add a tablespoon or two of barbecue sauce or
marinade to flavor the brown rice or quinoa if desired.
