Green juice is so packed with nutrients providing all kinds of benefits, and it can even taste good! This is one of my favs but there are many variations. My best recommendation is to start with more fruit and slowly add more greens and less fruit each time you make the juice. You will start to crave it! I have so much more energy after I have had my green drink- LOVE IT!
2 celery stalks
2 kale leaves (kale can have a strong flavor so use spinach if you prefer)
1/2 cucumber
handful parsley or cilantro
1/4 in fresh ginger (optional)
1/4 lemon
If you want to make it sweeter (I recommend this when trying for the first time) add 1/2 apple or carrot or beet.
I use my vita mix to make juice by putting all the ingredients and then filling with water until it covers the veggies and then I add a few cubes of ice. This recipe makes a couple of servings.
Green juice can be made in so many ways so play around with it. If I don't have a cucumber I will use some broccoli or cabbage...whatever you've got, just get those greens in ya!

- I love love LOVE to be in the kitchen experimenting with healthy recipes and as luck would have it Denny loves to eat. He is the world's best critic because so far everything on this blog has gotten an A+++! I wanted to have a way to share this information with as many people as possible because we are so bombarded with canned, packaged, enriched, genetically modified, sugar infested, trans fat...(and the list goes on)recipes. These recipes are ALL 100 percent healthy and good for you. I use REAL ingredients! We were designed to eat fruits and veggies, nuts and seed, and wild game, free-range, grass fed and finished meat. So here are some DELICIOUS ideas to make that innate diet come to life. I want to support you as much as possible so please email me if you have questions about anything on this site. With Love in the Kitchen, Dr. Mandy :-)
