Healthy Juice Recipe

Prep Time:5 minutes
5 minutes
Total Time:10 minutes
Course: Drinks
Servings: 1

Equipment

  • 1 Juicer
  • 1 Cutting board
  • 1 Knife
  • 1 Apple slicer optional

Ingredients

  • 4-5 large organic carrots
  • 6-8 organic celery sticks
  • 1 organic red beet
  • 1 organic apple
  • 1 piece organic ginger root

Instructions

  • Wash all vegetables and fruit thoroughly. I run them under cold water and scrub with my fingers. After washing, place them on the cutting board.
  • Cut the top off of all the carrots and cut the beet in half. A normal-size beet will not fit through the juicer chute opening, so you want to cut it in half first.
  • Peel the ginger and slice the apple (keep the peel on the apple). I use an apple slicer which makes this step super quick and easy. 
  • Turn the juicer on high and let it run for a few seconds before you begin juicing.
  • Begin inserting your veggies, fruit, and ginger into the juicer chute without overstuffing it. I generally do 2 carrots at a time, 3 celery sticks at a time, and a few apple slices. Use the pusher to completely grind each item before you add anything new. 
  • Pour the juice into a tall 16 oz. glass. Be sure the pitcher has the lid on it. That is used to minimize foam from the juice.
