Daniel Fast Recipes and ideas

 I am on the Daniel Fast as a lot of you probably are, I have really enjoyed it!  The items I have listed below you may already do but I thought I would share what I have been making.

I will be adding more recipes as the weeks go by.  If you have any that you would like to share, PLEASE do!

I have tried a few recipes that I found one being a breakfast cookie.  It didn't look anything like the picture at all!  It tasted pretty good if you could get over the look of the cookie.  It was kinda colorless and rubbery looking. It had bananas, apples, raisins, oats and almond milk.  I might try it again but... so if I do and they turn out different I'll let you know.

I made a Spicy Thai Noodle using wheat pasta.  It was very good, I had made it before but the original recipe has you eat it cold.  I heated it up and liked much better that way.  I will add that recipe later.

Also I know beans are good for you and good for this fast...just so happens I don't like beans :(.  So if you have a bean recipe you would like to share feel free!      

                                                              

                                                 Breakfast

                                                               Oatmeal

I cook the oatmeal like it says on the box then I cut up bananas in place them in a bowl

I then  poured the cooked oatmeal over the bananas and add a tablespoon or two of unsweetened applesauce to help sweeten it.  Then I added strawberries on top!  

                                  Snacks

       My sister Tammy told me about this Salt & Pepper popcorn, it's pretty good!!  Actually it is really good!  No butter but you don't feel like you miss the butter at all!

It comes in a mini bag so it's just the perfect size for 1!

 

I found a new way to make popcorn! In a lunch sack!

Here is the link to my post on this blog for making popcorn in a lunch sack!

Normally I would use butter or vegetable oil but you could use olive oil instead! click on link below

Popcorn in lunch sack 

takes 2 to 2 1/2 minutes in the microwave!

 

 

 

                I like apples but I do not like the skin.  I normally peel them and then cut them up.  The other day I put one in  the food processor and I bet I could have eaten 3 apples like this in one sitting!  So refreshing!

Peel a apple then slice it into chunks then turn on your food processor!

It's so simple but so refreshing in little bites like this this!

Bananas with peanut butter- delicious and filling.  I just cut up a banana and place onto a plate then plop a tablespoon of peanut butter on the plate!  I take my spoon and get some peanut butter then a banana slice for each bite!

Smoothie!  One of my favorites!  Our church is doing juice so I have orange juice in here but if you aren't you can throw in a orange.  I have in here about 8 oz of Orange Juice then  a whole banana, 3 blackberries, 3 strawberries and then after I mix that up,  I add about 10 to 12 ice cubes

Delicious and honestly filling!

I have made these for years and it taste like what I get at Thirsty's

 

I found these juices at HEB in Waxahachie, all juice nothing added and they taste good!!!

 

I will drink sooooo much water if it's nice and cold and has a lot of ice!!  I for the last year will go

to Sonic and get a large water with extra ice.  I then add my water bottles to the ice after I drink the water out of it!  I have found all Sonic's are different in price, some are always .27 some are .52 and some are .76!  If you go at happy hour is 1/2 that!!!!

 

 

Need a gateway to some guacamole or hot sauce??  Use a Triscuit!  

Sometimes you just need that crunch! I also just top these with a slice of avocado!

Guacamole!!!

Ingredients 

Triscuit Thin Crisp and Hummas!

I got this at HEB which owns Central Market.  I never thought I like Hummas until several months ago when I bought it for a dinner I was going to.  It's delicious and I really like this Mediterranean Hummus.

This has Kalamata olives and green olives

Thin Triscut

 

Another thing to dip those Triscuit is this great hot sauce! 

 

it's done on your grill!  Here is the link to the Hot Sauce on this blog!
