Juicy!
While I’m not currently on a juice feast like so many others at the moment I do like my share of fresh juice. Before doing any sort of raw, I enjoyed juice but tried to be aware of the ones with HFS (high fructose syrup) but now, being mostly raw I actually make fresh juice from time to time and of course, it’s HFS-free! So much better for me and very tasty I might add.
Pixywinks and Londoner (as I love to call her) have been posting some great sounding juices they’ve been creating. I want to try some of them.
Over the weekend I made this one:
2 red delicious apples
1 jalapeno
1 golden beet
2 red bell peppers
3+ handfuls of baby carrots
½ cucumber
4 or 5 celery stalks
My hubby thought it was pretty good; could’ve lessened the amount of carrots. Hee hee! We both agreed the whole jalapeno was a little too hot but it still felt good. Very warming. You never know with jalapenos sometimes…some are so mild and then others are pretty hot-cha-cha.
Hubby later made watermelon juice. YUM!!!!!! Just straight watermelon juice. It is so good and one of my faves. It filled us up and made us feel really good while we were out and about.
What are some of your favorite juices you make?

When I juice I usually make one with:
carrots
beets
celery
apples
I've never juiced cukes or peppers. My next venture though is to juice coconut meat. According to Raw Transformation uncookbook juicing the meat leads to a very tasty dessert frosting!
Now I'm all juiced up! Thanks for the inspirations!
Yes, juice is so good and I would love to do more of it. Just need to plan and organize. :)
Never tried a Jalapeno, maybe next time I'm in the produce section I'll grab one!
I love Carrot/celery/kale(easy on the kale)
also.. Melon/pear/grapefruit..is amazing..not food combining I know..but didnt cause any upset for me :)
1 sm bunch kale
1/2 - 1 cuke (cukes are THE best and go with any, any, any juice fixins)
3 celery stalks
1 romaine heart or 1/2 lg head romaine
1 gala apple
1 inch ginger
juice of 1 lemon in after bc if I juice whole, it's too bitter lemony for my liking.
I started juicing with apples, carrots, celery and tomato but I find it's too sweet for me anymore. I really want to start experimenting with new juices on the weekends when I have more time to mix it up.
Peace and veggies!
