Juice!!!

Yeah for fresh fruit!!!!

Juice:

6 strawberries

1/2 cup blueberries

2 huge hunks of fresh pineapple

1 banana

cup of orange juice

Blend with or without ice.

Yummy and plenty for 2 people.  Fresh pineapple is amazing and easier to cut than one would think from it's slightly intimidating exterior.

Juice!

Today's Juice:

1 cup orange juice
1/2 cup black berries
1/2 cup raspberries
1 banana
Hemp protein powder

Win!  Purple goodness.

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.

Pulpy Pom Wonder

I am calling this one the Pulpy Pom Wonder!

1 16 oz Pom Wonderful
8 oz of frozen pineapple
2 giant navel oranges

Blend until smoothish.  I also added 1 scoop of Plantfusion.  I love this stuff.

Hopefully this will scare away the cold my husband and child have.

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.

Sweet Juice

Today's sweet juice:

2 navel oranges
several carrots
1 bosc pear
1 green apple

All win!

A more complex tasting juice

This is a bit of a complex juice, but I like it.


One large orange
2 small clementines
several small carrots
3 stalks celery
one green apple
one big honkin' beet.





This is a fairly bright, complex juice.  Next time, I think that a bit of ginger would be nice in this.  I have been on a huge citrus kick lately.

Waiting not very patiently for spring, and more juicing options.

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.
