Who knew that veggies for breakfast could be so yummy? |
Joe Cross visited Denver and hosted a "Meet and Greet" at Whole Foods. Joe is a likable guy who tells it like it is. He talked about the many health benefits from juicing, namely a quicker, more efficient way to absorb the immune-boosting nutrients in fruits and vegetables. Most commercial juices are pasteurized and processed, which results in less nutrients.
Juicing in process! |
When I lived in Australia, I often visited juice bars and would get a sweet, yet tangy, orange juice. This juice recipe is my attempt to recreate it. It combines carrots and oranges, with ginger and lemon added for the tang. This is my favorite juice to have in the morning because it is refreshing and energizing.
It is easy to juice! The "hardest" part is prepping the fruits and vegetables for juicing. I find the juicer very easy to clean, and the parts can go in the dishwasher. Juicing is just as creative as baking and cooking, and I continue to enjoy experimenting with juices!

Claire...I have always wanted to get a juicer. Just think of the combinations and now that spring is on the horizon....I want to lighten up even more. Do you like your Breville? Would you recommend it? I think I want to invest in one. So keep those juice recipes flowing! : )
