Juicing in the AM

My mom bought me an amazing juicer for my birthday and I want to start juicing in the mornings to replace my daily Coffee Bean run. I'm looking for a yummy juice that is good in the mornings and can help boost my energy ... any recipe recommendations?

Thank you!

I make a juice based on the Crazy Sexy Diet recipe.  I use half a big cucumber (peeled if not organic), 1 granny smith apple, about a sixth of a lemon (peeled), 4 or 5 kale leaves, 4 or 5 romaine leaves and a very small piece of ginger.  I like it served cold over lots of ice.  FYI, the leaves juice better if you roll them into a little bundle.  This recipe makes one fairly large glassful.  Have fun experimenting!

I LOVE morning juices! I usually put in carrots,papaya,celery,berries,sometimes kale,always chlorella,mint...it really gives me so much energy! I bounce out the door like a well rested grizzly.

My favorite juice is:  spinach or kale, 1 green apple, 1/2 cucumber, 1-2 carrots, 1-2 celery stalks.  You can add lemon or ginger for a kick too!

This juice does not sound appealing at all, but please believe me when I say it is YUMMY! My boyfriend and I don't leave the house now without having it, we're hooked!

1 Frozen Banana,

1 Handful Raw Nuts (I use walnuts),

4-5 dates (without seeds),

3-4 Kale or Silverbeet Leaves,

Cold Water (1-2 Cups depending on the consistency you prefer),

I also put in a dash of Flaxseed Oil. Blend until nice and smooth and enjoy.

Yummy and amazingly good for you! smiley-smile.gif

^You know,I used to use frozen bananas and berries ALL the time in smoothies/juices.Till one day my stomach literally froze! smiley-surprised.gif

I just discovered how amazing cabbage juice is! It not only produces a lot of licquid when you juice it, but it tastes kinda sweet too:)
