But before my 21-day cleanse begins, I made one last non-CSD recipe — Tortilla Soup from Appetite for Reduction:
Actually, if I'd made this the Isa way, this soup would probably pass for the Crazy Sexy Diet cleanse, but I substituted regular tortilla chips for the baked ones she calls for in the recipe. And man was it good! I love the way the crunchy chips break down and get all soggy in the soup. The next day, this soup was super thick and even better.You can't have soup without a grilled cheese! So I made a Grilled Daiya Cheese Sandwich on my panini press:
This wasn't actually my last meal, but it was the last new thing I've tried from a cookbook. Tonight, I made the traditional Southern black-eyed peas and cabbage for New Year's Day, and this morning I soaked up my post New Year's Eve hangover with a greasy tofu omelet from Pho Saigon. I'll be doing a full review post of this delicious Memphis vegan restaurant find after the cleanse. But tune in tomorrow for a report from day one!

Best of luck on the cleanse, Bianca. My boyfriend and I are doing one starting next week as well and I've kind of been searching for perameters. Kris Carr's sounds a lot like what I've been thinking of, but we're probably going to try to do higher raw.
Soup looks awesome; I need to use AfR more often!
Good luck on the cleanse! Your last meal looks delicious, I love a grilled Daiya sandwich.
I'm starting the CSD Cleanse today too! This is my first time trying it. Good luck to you!
I SERIOUSLY need to do a cleanse. I hope to get inspired reading your posts!
Have fun! The CSD cleanse was WAY easier and way more enjoyable for me the second time around. I hope it's good for you too!
I'm feeling a cleanse too. I'm recognizing the need for a panini press after seeing your post.
good luck, the grilled cheese looks delicious!
