Hi everyone!
I’ve shared about the 10 Day Health Challenge before when it first launched it and have always admired one of the founders Claudine’s drive and energy and LOVED all of her food. Her Instagram @cookingclaudine is one of my very favorites to follow! The 10 Day Health Challenge is a program Claudine and her business partner Haley put together that consists of a 10-Day whole food meal plan and grocery list, nutritional support and a community of likeminded people who also want to get healthier and feel more empowered to cook and eat well. The challenge removes all processed foods, sugar, gluten, dairy, soy, alcohol and coffee from your diet for 10 days. This isn’t like a juice cleanse where you aren’t eating – you are fueling your body with GOOD foods and seriously, you would be surprised how easy some of the recipes are to make (and how delicious meals can be, even without bread and cheese!).
I was super excited to partner with them earlier this week to bring some amazing bloggers together to learn more about the 10 Day Health Challenge, talk about health and wellness and eating well, and enjoy meal from the 10 Day Health Challenge summer guide. We hosted the event at Claudine’s beautiful apartment (seriously – look at that table!)
Here’s what the menu for the 10 Day Health Challenge summer dinner party was – and check out the photos of the meal and dessert below! All of the food was SO good and I finished the meal feeling full and content, without at all feeling stuffed or bloated. It was so refreshing!
Lemon-Energizer-Aid
Claudine’s signature Buckwheat Crackers with Macadamia and Sun Dried Tomato Spread
Cauliflower Crust Pizza with summer squash
Cauliflower Tabouli
Spinach Falafel with Tahini over Arugula Salad
Chocolate Cashew Cream with raspberries, cacao, and bee pollen
I know 10 days can feel pretty daunting (or at least it does for me a little bit!), so there’s also a FREE 3-Day Health Challenge for you HERE if you’re interested. If you’re up for the challenge of trying out the full 10 Day Summer Health Challenge that kicks off August 1st, get 10% off with the code SUMMER10. Sign up HERE.
If you’re anything like me, it can be easy to end your day with a cheese plate for dinner and a glass (or two..) of wine every night. Because they are both delicious and amazing. And because, duh. BUT – I’m going to try to stretch my eating/drinking habits and challenge myself to eating (and drinking) a lot cleaner and healthier. I haven’t decided if I am going to do the FULL 10 days or do the 3 day or if I am going to swap out all breakfasts and lunches for 10HC meals or how I’ll exactly modify, but that’s why I love the program Haley and Claudine put together. You have the ability to LEARN what you should be putting in your body (and what you shouldn’t), and be equipped to prepare those meals for yourself and take the learnings and go out into your regular, day-to-day life.
