Tony & I have decided to try some juicing this spring. I don't know exactly what our experience will look like, but I do know we are excited. Our inspiration came from watching "Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead" a feature length documentary on Netflix. I don't think we will do anything like Joe Cross, who documented his journey. But we sure do want to hyper-nutrionalize our bodies! If you have netflix, it's worth the watch.
We bought a brand new juicer from walmart.com & picked it up last weekend. It's been riding around in my cherokee since then. Tonight Wayne wanted to get it out & start making some juices, so our journey began.
Our hands-down favorite was the "Lemony Apple" recipe that we found at http://juicerrecipesnow.com/
- 2 apples with skins on
- 1 lemon
- 1" slice of ginger
Wayne was excited about the apples & lemon, but a little uncertain about the ginger, until it was sliced & he could smell it for himself. It has the greatest scent.
We also enjoyed our apple & strawberry juice, made with just those two fruits. But MY epic fail was one stalk of celery, one cucumber, one kiwi, one pear & some spinach. Too much green & not enough sweet I'd say was the problem, but it is strong & pungent in a wrong way for this juice beginner.
