Juicing: A bloody mess

I am calling this one a bloody mess:

4 beets
4 carrots
1 inch of ginger

Masticate and put in the blender with

2 tangelos
4 oz of frozen pineapple
3 ice cubes
Protein powder.

Yields 32 oz of juicy wonder.

Pink is the new Green

This is a wonderfully healthy "green" juice.

4 small beets with greens
a bunch of spinach
5 carrots
6 or 7 pieces of frozen pineapple.


I ran out of ginger so I sub-ed in the pineapple




Ok, I admit it.  I am not always fond of green juices.  But this is a pretty good combo.

Juicing day....whatever.

At least I am still juicing at least once a day.  I added hummus.  I very much would love to add another protein but I haven't reached my goal yet.  Also, I have found that I like chewing.  Mastication is fun and good for you!  Green juice tonight because I have a lot of veg to get through.

Breakfast - Simply Orange Juice

Lunch - 2 cups of spinach, 3 tablespoons of hummus, one romma tomato

Juice:

1/2 a cabbage
1 cucumber
1/2 a lemon
1/4 inch of ginger
3 carrots
4 small beets
248 tiny calories

About 16 oz yield
