Green Juice


A few posts ago I put up some recipes for green smoothies which I absolutely love, but if you notice, a good majority of my green smoothie is fruit, and not so much veggies.  What can I say, I love fruit and hate veggies!

BUT, I have been encouraged to try incorporating more veggies in my diet.  I have also recently read a lot and learned a lot about juicing.  Coincidentally, I was helping a family move into their new house and was offered a healthy juice from a local cafĂ© – Deja Vu.  The mom said she swore by them when she did not have time to make her own.  By her description of it (you can see that below) I was nervous, but decided to give it a try. 

As I picked up the bright green juice, I am sure I grimaced.  I took a sip … it was delicious!  I don’t have a juicer, but luckily I am close to the shop at which this drink was created, and maybe eventually I will get a juicer. 

These are the ingredients in the drink that I tasted (and loved!): kale, green apple, ginger, lemon, cucumber, lime, spinach, and parsley.

Here is a picture:





Say yes to green juice!
