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.

Awesome Juice Combo

I cannot get enough of this:

2 oranges
1 green apple
6-7 carrots

Very good!!

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

Let there be juice.

I have been doing some juicing.  Not just the morning yummy fruit kind, but the hard to drink sort of a struggle to get down kind.

My favorite is just plain old Carrot and Apple.  Sweet, easy to drink, yummy.

Today we tried this, I call it "Not V8 by a Long Shot":

2 carrots
2 romma tomatoes
a hand full of cilantro
a hand full of spinach
3 stocks of celery
Juice of one lemon

It was green.  It was good.  It was ugly.

I am going to attempt pictures of the juicing this week.  My food photography is almost as bad as that greeeeeeen juice.  Practice makes perfect.
