I love having green juices in the morning. My body likes it much more than starting with caffeine. Juicing is one of the healthiest, easiest things you can do to bring your body back into balance and promote excellent health. Be sure you always use organic produce for juicing. For this recipe, you will need some sort of juicer, such as a twin-gear, Omega, or centrifugal.
The difference between a green juice and a green smoothie is that the smoothie will contain the fibers of whatever you are using, and juicing removes most of the fiber.
If you have never done a lot of juicing, simple is best when experimenting. I didn’t happen to have any kale or other leafy greens in the house today, but you can totally get by with celery, cucumbers and green apples. This little combo makes about 6 cups of wonderful green drink.
Ingredients:
1 head of celery
1 cucumber
1/2 bunch cilantro
1 lime, peeled
2 green apples
Instructions:
Wash the produce, peel the lime and run it all through your juicer. Enjoy!
Makes about 6 cups.
