Over a year ago I decided that I wanted to commit to juicing for a solid year to see how I would feel. After a few months I started getting so many compliments on my skin that I thought that alone was reason enough for keeping it up. At first I would take all the vegetables that I had bought and throw them in the juicer and make one conglomeration of vegetables. It was good and I did that for that first year. Then I started looking into juice recipes. I personally can’t do fruit medleys because they affect my blood sugar too much so I stick to vegetable blends using only apples to sweeten and temper the flavor. I found that if I use less combination of vegetables the juices are more palatable and refreshing.

Here are my three favorite recipes.

GREEN JUICE MEDLEY

  • Several handfuls of spinach
  • Half a bunch of watercress
  • About 1/3 bunch parsley
  • 1 or 2 apples
  • 1 inch piece of ginger, more or less to your liking
  • 2 lime wedges for garnish

Put all vegetables and apples through juicer. I like to pour mine over ice and then squeeze a couple of lime or lemon wedges for an added kick.

Root Blend #1

  • 2 carrots
  • 1 apples
  • 1 inch piece ginger
  • 2 wedges of lemon or lime

Root Blend #2

  • 1 beet
  • 1 apple
  • 1 inch piece of ginger
  • 2 wedges lemon or lime

Root Blend #3

  • 2 carrots
  • 1 beet
  • 2 apples
  • 1 inch piece of ginger
  • 2 wedges lemon or lime

I like to drink my juice first thing in the morning. It really gives me an energetic zing! Happy juicing!
