Tasty juicing recipes

Talk about juicing and u get images of green, goooey tasting drinks only the Incredible Hulk would think of drinking. But these recipes from Torrie Pattillo promises not to be. It is meant for the juicing beginner, to slowly ease in the juicing habit. I have yet to try it out but I'm blogging this to not lose the recipe.

Note: Try to use organic produce when possible. If not possible, simply clean produce well. Remove rind, core and peel. Juice produce, pour over ice and enjoy.

1. Happy Green Juice

• 1 cucumber 
• 2 celery stalks
• 2 pears 
• 1/3 cantaloupe 
• 6-8 kale leaves
• 1/2 lemon 
• 1 inch of ginger 

2. Drink Your Produce Green Juice

• 4 carrots 
• 1 cucumber
• 1-2 cups of spinach
• 1 lemon 
• 1 gala or pink lady apple
• 1 pear 

3. Green Lemonade

• 3 cups of spinach
• 1 lemon 
• 1 cucumber 
• 1 pear 
• 1 gala apple 

Once you get acclimated to the taste, I highly encourage an 80/20 ratio for green juice (80% vegetables, 20% fruit). 

Tip: Never juice bananas or avocado, and follow your juicer's manual, especially as it pertains to leafy greens.
