I got a fancy, shiny, new Omega juicer for Christmas and I couldn’t be more excited about it. I’ve been waking up early before work in the mornings so that I can experiment with different kinds of juice. P.O. (pre-Omega), I used to head over to The Juice Press every morning and pay $9/day for my breakfast green juice.
Now things are different and my life is changed (and my bank account is not depleting quite so quickly). I buy a bunch of greens, apples, lemon, fresh ginger, and other vegetables on Sundays and use them all week to make juice. Total cost = about $3/juice. Score!
What do I put in my green juice? A mixture of the following fruits and vegetables. The amounts change daily and I suggest that you play around with these to find the perfect balance for you.
Julia’s Green Juice
-Kale
-Romaine
-Celery
-1 Gala apple
-Ginger
-Juice of 1/2 lemon
awesome! thank you for the easy recipe! Next step. purchase my own juicer, is it necessary to go high end?
i dont know if it’s necessary but it makes juicing much easier! i have friends with other juicers and they complain about how long it takes to clean. i would definitely do your research. good luck!
I just got a juicer for Christmas too and I am absolutely in love with it! Juicing can be SO expensive when you buy it at a store/cafe/ spa etc. I find it much more feasible and fun to make my own!
I love the carrot-kale-cucumber-apple combo, and I really want to start experimenting with beets. So many great combos to try!
