Alkaline Diet Recipe: Adzuki Bean and Avocado Lettuce Cups


Black Bean and Avocado Lettuce CupsIn the last post, I shared 9 awesome reasons to eat avocados every day.
Today I’m going to give you one more great reason. But you probably already know this one… Avocados are delicious!
It’s easy to #GetOffYourAcid when alkaline foods taste this good.
This is another avocado recipe you’re going to love. These lettuce cups are so good, you’ll swear you are eating out at a gourmet restaurant!
But unlike the food in most restaurants, they’re actually packed with nutrition.
You’ll get protein, fiber, a whole host of vitamins and minerals, and the cilantro will deliver a couple of nutrients that are key for cleansing your liver: linalool and glutathione.
Kids love these lettuce cups so they make a great family dinner or lunch, and you can prepare them in just a few minutes, which is good because you might need to make seconds!
