Instructions

1. Prepare the quinoa: Rinse 1½ cups of quinoa under cold water. Combine with 3 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
2. Roast the sweet potatoes and carrots: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and chop the sweet potatoes and carrots into bite-sized pieces. Toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes or until tender and golden.
3. Prepare the chickpeas: If using canned, rinse and drain well. Optionally, toss with smoked paprika and roast in the oven for 15 minutes for added flavor and crunch.
4. Make the lemon ginger dressing: In a blender, combine ¼ cup olive oil, ¼ cup lemon juice, peeled ginger, 2 garlic cloves, turmeric powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.
5. Assemble the cleanse salad bowls: In large bowls, layer a base of mixed leafy greens. Add quinoa, roasted sweet potatoes, carrots, chickpeas, diced cucumber, sliced red bell peppers, and avocado slices.
6. Drizzle the lemon ginger dressing over the bowls and toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
7. Prepare chia pudding: Mix ¼ cup chia seeds with 1 cup almond milk and a splash of vanilla extract (optional). Stir well and refrigerate overnight. This serves as a nutrient-dense breakfast or snack during your cleanse.
8. Blend daily smoothies: Combine mixed berries, a handful of spinach or kale, 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds, and 1 cup almond milk in the blender. Blend until smooth to enjoy a refreshing and energy-boosting beverage.
9. Repeat these recipes and customize: Rotate these meals throughout the 21 days, adding fresh herbs and varying your vegetables to prevent monotony.
