2 apples, cored
2 big handfuls of spinach
1/2 cup of chopped parsley
a celery stick, chopped
1 thumbnail length of ginger root, peeled
1 lemon- juice only
1 cucumber
Place ingredients in a blender, add 4 oz. water or a handful of ice cubes, (I add water and ice), then puree, makes two glasses.( I just cut the yellow part of the lemon peel off and put the rest of the lemon in, seeds and all. The white part under the peel is good for you)
Optional ingredients:
raw carrot, unsweetened fruit juice, banana (I always add a banana, preferably frozen it makes the drink taste better. I sometimes add a kiwi or 2)
I use a vitamixer. If you have a regular blender skip the carrot. It works better to add a few ingredients start mixing then add more.
This is great to have for breakfast. Starts your day off right, and tastes better than you think. Low calorie, high nutrition.
