day two/crispy spring rolls recipe

unfortunately i am back into the bad habit of getting up really early because of work(4am) and coming home & trying not to take a nap is very difficult. i've been good so far about sticking to this, i'm hoping that my energy levels rise as i continue this diet.

last night i worked out for 2 hours(spinning & kickboxing) & today i ran 6 miles, and biked 6 miles. let's see those pounds drop!

breakfast:
oatmeal
coffee with soy milk

lunch:
(thank you cafe 118 in winter park for divulging enough ingredients for me to figure this amazing recipe out)
crispy spring rolls

dinner
roasted eggplant & zucchini
one piece of salmon

alright, so dinner tonight was not raw... but like i said, i want to slowly integrate this eating permanently.

oh, & here's that recipe for the awesome spring rolls!

ingredients:

cabbage
carrots
mango
almond butter
collard greens
dates
lemon

shred one cup of carrots, one cups of cabbage & one cup of mango(i like to use a large cheese grater)

cut up one cup of fresh dates - blend in the food processor adding fresh lemon juice until it is smooth

cut one large leaf of collard green in half(i just cut out the vein, and i have two equal halves) - spread almond butter on the leaves - as much or as little as you would like.

layer the mango, carrots & cabbage: roll like a burrito: dip in amazing date spread: ENJOY! these is a great sweet & sour combo that you will love!
