GF/CF Blenderized Recipe




1 month supply: We freeze in 3 cup increments.

2 Whole Organic Chickens - cooked and de-boned
2 boxes Quinoa - cooked
15 beets - cooked down (save the juice)
15 apples sliced
14 bananas
14 carrots
1 jar of Coconut Oil - We use Natures Way EfaGold Organic
4 - of the 1/2 gallons of coconut or almond milk
Spinach - 2 bunches
Kale - 2 bags or 2 large bunches
Collared Greens - 2 bags or 2 large bunches
14 - dates
15 sweet potatos
1 bag of Gluten Free Oats (sold at Whole Foods or Kroger)
7 - 13.5 ounces of canned coconut milk - different propertes than the refrigerated coconut milk or the coconut oil - good fats and extra calories
1 - large container of Pomegranate juice
4 - Acai Juice (smaller Bossa Nova bottles)
I usually cook down the chicken, sweet potatos and beets (save the juice) the day before. That way I'm not on my feet the entire day on blenderize day. My husband always helps me from start to finish and it takes us about 3 hours of blending, an hour of clean up, prep time was about 3 hours. We grocery shop separate for all of these items to make tax time a little easier.
We have a Montel Healthmaster http://www.myhealthmaster.com/ because we were going through blenders about every 2 months and because it has an extra large container. We make 14-18 batches with the above ingredients. I wish I could say that I have this down to how much goes in each but we've been doing it so long I just have a feel for how much of each ingredient we put in. I think it would have to do more with your child's needs. And you can take away ingredients and add to your hearts content. All items are whole and organic so you can't really go wrong. If you have a yeasty kid you may want to use green apples instead of red. Apples have high amounts of glutathione so I wouldn't remove the apples altogether. If you have a kid that needs more greens in their diet you can use less of the other ingredients and more greens.
For all nutritional information I default to The Encyclopedia of Healing Foods by Michael Murray, ND. It's a huge book but very informational. It breaks down artificial coloring, sweeteners, gives details on oils, good and bad ones. Etc. It's really a great reference to have around when you are talking about total wellness.
Good luck on this blenderized diet journey. Make it fun. Lots of times we have Davis (our 8 year old) help chop veggies as we jam out to some of our favorite tunes. We try to make it fun because it is a lot of work and we are talking about doing this well....possibly forever so....we need to keep it real and not get stressed about it.
