60 Delicious Detox Dishes

With Football season in full swing and baseball playoffs happening, I’ve found that my weekends and sometimes week nights are spent eating a lot of excellent (but not excellent for you) food and drinking copious amounts of beer.

I definitely enjoy a good plate of wings (check back on Thursday for an example) and a beer or a few, but after many days of that, my body is usually screaming for some sort of veggie besides celery dipped in blue cheese dressing.

So over the weekend I set out on a Internet hunt of sorts to find 60 dishes that might help you detox after a long weekend of excess. Why 60? Well, because it fits nicely in a 20 by 3 square of photos.

Make a few of these and your body can thank me later.

    Glad everyone likes the little roundup of health!

    And just so there isn't any confusion, most of the photos (minus 2) are not mine. They are photos from the original posts. If you hover over each photo it should show attribution info for each photo and link to the original post obviously.

    An excellent collection of healthy foods. Thank you for including my Zucchini Soup in your list and for sharing these lovely blogs. I can't wait to go check all of them now. By the way, I'm planning to make your Chicken and Dumplings at the weekend. Sounds like the best remedy for the cold with so much curative flavors.
