A January Reset, the Tuesday Foods Way

Our January reset has become one of our favorite Tuesday Foods traditions—a simple way to begin the year feeling nourished, energized, and back in rhythm. The idea is intentionally approachable: 3 or more days of eating well, enjoying satisfying meals, and gently returning to habits that support your body without deprivation.

Today we’re sharing a simple, nourishing 3-day reset - along with a collection of our favorite cleansing recipes - to help you ease back into eating in a way that feels good. This sample plan is designed to be comforting, restorative, and realistic—built around plant-forward meals that support digestion, steady energy, and overall vitality, while leaving room for flexibility and enjoyment. Think food that helps you feel lighter and more energized, not restricted or overwhelmed. These are the kinds of meals we love coming back to all year long.

And if you’d rather skip the planning, shopping, chopping, cooking, and clean-up, we can do it for you! We offer local delivery and in-home meal prep throughout Colorado, including the Roaring Fork Valley, Vail, Boulder, and Denver. Whether you follow the reset at home or let us handle everything, this is about making healthy eating feel supportive, doable, and genuinely enjoyable.

3 Day Reset

This is not a cleanse or a fast.  It’s a gentle return to food that helps you feel good in your body - more energized, less bloated, and supported from the inside out.

Our philosophy is simple:

  • Plants are the foundation

  • Meals should be satisfying

  • Focus on nourishment, not deprivation

  • Support digestion, nourishment and steady energy

  • Choose habits that feel realistic and repeatable

  • Healthy eating should feel fun, not restrictive

Each meal below can easily be adapted to your preferences. Start with plant-based proteins, and if your body wants more, you can add organic and sustainably sourced eggs, fish, poultry, or meat as desired.
