All I Do Is Juice...

I am obsessed with the juicing trend. I can't get enough. I know I posted a recipe for Green Juice earlier, but I have found so many other recipes that I love more than the original and they come with their own benefits. These recipes target different things so I can't wait to try them all! I absolutely feel better through out my day and my body craves this. I have become so intertwined that I panic if I know I will be out of town, away from my Bella Juicer and can't live my favorite morning ritual.

I didn't include measurements because everyone has their own tastes. When I read these I know I would do the following ratios according to the ingredients: I will always put 4 stalks of celery, 1 cucumber, 1 apple, 1 Tbsp of Ginger, 1 beet , 1 lemon, 4 stalks of Kale, Two huge handfuls of Spinach/Romaine, 3-4 Carrots, or no carrots if I want to limit the sweet tastes, 1 Lemon and 1 Lime (2 Limes if I want more tart taste). I also love tons of Parsley so I am sure I would include tons of Cilantro.

But to each their own:) I hope you all get into the juicing trend because I am in love and obsessed. I'd like to thank my mother for buying me a juicer for Christmas! 

Green Juice.

I have been on a health kick of sorts as of late. To help with this, my mother bought me a juicer for Christmas.. There is this website I love, YourZenLife.com and on it is a recipe for Green Juice.. Along with the recipe is an article on the health benefits of Green Juice and how it makes you feel over all good. Which is what I love, so needless to say I was sold. So I have tweaked this to my own liking but the original recipe is as follows. 

Tez's Green Juice Recipe 
Serves 1 

Handful of baby spinach
5 big kale leaves
Handful romaine lettuce
1/4 cucumber chopped
3 celery sticks chopped (don't include the ends of stick, chop off and discard)
Juice from 1 lemon
Juice from 1 lime
Small handful of blueberries
1/4 cup water (add more for a juicier consistency, less for a thicker smoothie)

Blend and pour into glass.
Sprinkle some organic cinnamon powder on top to taste


Delicious!! 

Note: Try interchanging fruit and different veggies as you wish, remember 1-2 pieces of fruit 4-5 different types of greens 

-- Now I couldn't find Kale Leaves so I used Broccoli, I also used Pineapple since Blueberries and Strawberries aren't in season. Now I love the taste of citrus. I love to suck on Lemons and I eat  Limes like they are candy. I loaded this down with Lemon and Lime Juices and with the Pineapple, it helped mask the taste of drinking a salad. I hope this is the energy boost and good mood Morning maker I hope it is!
