Simple Green Juice

 

Somehow I caught a stomach virus this week that has knocked me down the last few days. I really can't even think about putting food in my mouth just yet, but I was craving a fresh green juice. Lucky for me I had everything on hand.

No juicer? You really do not need a juicer. I use my VitaMix to blend everything together. Place the mixture in a nut milk bag and squeeze all the juice out. It's really easy and way faster than cleaning a juicer. I use the whole apple, 1/2 organic lemon, 1 small chunk of ginger, celery, baby spinach, cilantro and cucumber. I feel better instantly after drinking this juice. Give it a try!

  1. Stacey,

    This sounds like a great drink, I just recommend removing the seeds from the apple if you aren't already doing this:

  2. Christian, a few apple seeds are not poisonous as everyone thinks they are. You need to eat a massive amount of apple seeds in order for them to be toxic.
