Juice. Just juice.

Goji delight
Spinach
Banana
Strawberry
pineapple
mango
papaya
goji berries

Goji berries are considered one of the "super foods" nowadays and pack an antioxidant punch.  Because they are so trendy, they are expensive.  Look for a quality online store to get them from for a far better deal than at the market.

Purple Juice  (on the left)
1/2 head red cabbage
1-2 pounds of red grapes
2 apples
cucumbers

The grapes sweeten the cabbage nicely.  I probably used closer to the 2 pounds than one.  This definitely has an aftertaste.  Just tell yourself you are preventing cancer and escorting free radicals from your body.

The 2 main juices in my house on any given day that I use the juicer are the ones below.  I call the one on the left my Favorite Juice and the one on the right Sweet Kale

Favorite Juice
4 apples (use a green or gala)
8 celery stalks
8 carrots


Sweet Kale
Bunch Kale
Bunch Cilantro
1/2 pineapple
1/2 lime
3 Cucumbers

The Sweet Kale is delicious (as is the Favorite).  It is sweet, but not overly sweet.

Enjoy your juice and your week-end.

NutriBullet recipes

I know not everyone has a juicer.  Many people have the Nutribullet.   I will start giving equal time to the Bullet since I use it as much as my juicer.

Tropic Thunder
2 cups spinach
1 cup pineapple
banana
goji berries
shaved coconut
water to the fill line


So delicious.  You can taste every Ingredient in there.


Antioxidant Blast
1 cup spinach
1 cup blueberry/raspberry/blackberry mix
goji berries
water to fill line

You can easily double the ingredients and make a bigger blast.  I used the small cup since I also ate a hard boiled egg.

Enjoy
