We are back from another fabulous trip back east visiting family.  I definitely let my diet slack a bit when I’m on vacation.  You only live once, you might as well enjoy it!

I did manage to squeeze in a few workouts, but it does feel good to get back home and back into my regular workouts and eating clean.

I was really craving fresh, raw veggies and did not feel like cooking in this heat…did I mention it’s well over 30°C, oh and we don’t have central air.

Blah.

Luckily, this recipe is raw and therefore it requires ZERO cooking.  It’s so easy to throw together, you’ll have a happy full belly without ever breaking a sweat.

Let’s get to it….
