I Heart Juice...... so today I made the most delicious juice. One of my NYE's goals is to be healthier overall which includes eating (or drinking) more fruits and especially more vegetables. So today not only did I workout but I also drank seriously huge glass of the yummiest juice. I am so awesome!
So, what was in this most delicious concoction you ask........roll call please:
5 carrots
3 celery stalks
2 1-inch pieces of ginger root
As you will see from the pictures when making juice a lot of the plant matter is left behind and I am pretty sure that's where the fiber lives which IS important. However, a glass of juice a few days a week is still a good idea to get a bunch of vitamins through your food in an efficient manner. It wasn't even as expensive as I thought it would be which is always learned. Celery, carrots, apples, and ginger root ( I just realized how cheap ginger actually is, it always seemed pricey but its not that heavy so the price per pound is not even close to what a big chunker of root will cost you...Yay) can all be affordable. The beets were the priciest because they pack some heft but are worth it nutritionally speaking. I haven't gone there yet but adding greens is cheap and super healthy. I am pretty obsessed with the above recipe because it tastes so wonderful (especially with so much ginger it burns your face off...love that).
