Green Juice recipe

As much as I hate cleaning the pieces of the juicer (hate scrubbing the strainer!), I’m so glad we used it this am.  I always have more energy and feel better when I’m drinking fresh juice.

It’s hard not to judge a book by it’s cover here.  Funny how something ugly can taste so good!

I use the Breville Juice Fountain Elite.  It has several pieces but the end result of the most juice from the fruits and vegetables is worth it.

This summer I picked up a this book on juicing at Williams-Sonoma: The Juice Generation. It has a lot of great recipes for both the juicer or blender.  I think a VitaMix works best for smoothies.  It leaves no stings or grit.

My sweet Lab gets concerned with the whirring of the motor…Poor thing!

This morning I just threw together a few things from the fridge.  It was great!  Here’s today’s creation.  The nectarines are so good right now.  I might add a slice of jalapeno tomorrow!
