The Surgery Diet

So as Danielle mentioned in the precious post, it's been a crazy week for me! I got my wisdom teeth out on Friday and have been in bed basically ever since. I'm sure many of you can relate to that! Thank God for meds and ice! So many things I have been able to eat and have helped me tremendously! Juice and smoothies are my best friends this week, and I thought I would share some recipes! These are great for any situation, even when you're just on the go and don't have a lot of time for a nutritious breakfast!
