Well, I just couldn’t help myself. Normally as part of the detox section of the 21 Cleanse – it’s a Shake for Breakfast, Meal for Lunch, and Shake for Dinner. My Wellness Coach, Jessi, from the Clean Program contacted me to earlier this week to check in, and when I mentioned I was in Austin, recommended I try Casa de Luz – well, lunch timing just doesn’t work when you’re at a conference, so I splurged last night and had a dinner, instead of a shake. I mean how often would a girl from Jacksonville get to eat at a Macrobiotic, organic eatery.
It was wonderful – they had a fixed menu and I was so full I actually couldn’t finish it all. And for only $12 that’s saying something. I think it had a lot to do with the combinations of the food, too.
Here’s what I had:
Soup
Carrots and Cauliflower with Coconut Milk
Salad
Mixed Greens with a Sunflower Seed and Dill Dressing
Entree
Red Lentils
Quinoa and Amaranth with Nori Condiment
Steamed Kabocha Squash
Blanched Greens with a Pepita Cilantro Parsley Sauce
Pickled Carrot and Daikon
Looks divinely fresh and healthy. Good cheatin’!
Wow, Michelle, your Austin food trip is killing me. I would have scarfed that WHOLE plate down. Yum!
