Ruby’s Notes: “This is a recipe that my grandpa taught me. He always just called it Greek Fish. Who knew that it fits perfectly into Phase 1?  I’ve used walleye, cod and recently with tilapia, which is really tasty. This dish is especially delicious in the summer when you can use home grown tomatoes.”

Nicole’s Notes: This smoothie recipe is adapted from the Tofuti Smoothie in the Fat Flush Cookbook. I used a fresh nectarine instead of frozen and silken tofu in place of firm. Love the creamy texture! You can use peaches, plums (very different, but very good), any berries, or any other Phase 1 fruit you think would work. You can also freeze this smoothie in popsicle holders for a yummy Fat Flush Friendly dessert!

*Notes:
If you prefer softer chia seeds, add the seeds and water to the blender first; let sit for 1-2 minutes.
