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!
