After a week at Detox, I decided to improvise a new dish . The Detox menu is rich, however it requires constant preparing. Because Dima and I started this process together, and we don’t always eat the same dishes, I found myself every day- all day in the kitchen.
As much as I love the kitchen and cooking, the heat in Arizona is unbearable; not to mention the heat that stove and oven add, while the AC screams “HELP!!”.
I wanted to make a dish that would last for at least three days.
We are not allowed to eat any carbs, we are allowed to a measured amount of vegetables, and about 2 chicken drum sticks for lunch.
I tried to imitate the fantastic recipe of “Three’s a company” in the skinnier version, and it turned out just wonderful!!
