One of my Christmas gifts this year was a juicer! Something I have wanted since I became a fruitarian have been pregnant. I crave juice all the time, so it is wonderful to be able to make it myself.
This morning’s mix was one pear, one apple, and a couple of handfuls of carrots and broccoli florets. It was delicious – I can’t wait to experiment with it! Anyone have any good juice combos?? I really want to try some things with leafy green goodness.
We spent the day shopping/making gift exchanges, and when Meeker had to go back to work, I came home and had some Christmas leftovers for dinner.
Mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, and gravy
And now I need to run to the grocery store to restock our fruit supply…really I just want another 5 lb bag of grapefruit.
I wanted a juicer too! And I didn’t get one.
I love my juicer! It is a great way for me to get veggies since I don’t love them. My favorite combo is carrots, apples, pear, fresh ginger, lemon and spinach. Also apple, cucumber and lemon is good too!
That’s cool that you got a juicer…what do you do with the pulpy stuff?
Throw it away? Just curious.
I have never had a juicer, but I am sure that there are thousands of
delicious combinations of fruits and veggies that you can come up with. Yum!
My husband wants a juicer so badly he can’t stand it. So glad you enjoy yours. Maybe I’ll have to get him one!
congrats on the juicer! love that cute bowl, too
I love beet and orange juice. It sounds strange but is delicious!
Haha I just posted about how I never use my juicer because it’s a pain to clean. I do like the juice though. My fave combo is apple, carrot, cucumber, spinach.
A juicer, how fun!
OMG love, you are preggo? CONGRATS!! I’ve been out of the loop for so long. Fruits are awesome!! Preggers or not
Congrats again!!
Thank you!! It’s super exciting and exhausting all at the same time! I’m a little more than halfway though (5.5 months) – and loving every second of it! How are you??
I’ll take another ten pound bag of apples please at that!;)
The christmas food looks lovely!
I want to try a juicer! I’m not the hugest juice fan though! I like smoothies and milkshakes and realll food if ya know what i mean!
I feel ya…I never liked juice until I was preggo – now I literally cannot get enough in my day!
ahah i love all these grapefruit cravings! juicer sounds awesome! you can make so many different combos with that!
That’s exciting! I’d love to have a juicer someday when I have a bigger kitchen.
I’m not a big fan of juice so I don’t know many combos, although I heard green apple, kale, and lemon was good.
PS – I guess I missed that last post so CONGRATULATIONS! How exciting!
Kiwi makes for really good juice!! So do beets.
My parents gave me their million year old juicer – its so awesome to have one. You’re going to love it FOREVER!
ohh a juicer sounds like a great christmas gift!! i love that you can try all these exotic comibinations – i have always wanted to try kiwi and mango for some reason haha.
Love your blog!
I got a juicer for my wedding last year, and I adore it. If you are loving grapefruits right now, stick some whole fruits in the fridge and juice them. It makes the best citrus juice. But I love the combo of celery, green apple and spinach. I start with this and throw in a wild card fruit. The new issue of Body and Soul has a couple of recipes so does their website. Its fun to experiment with different combos!
i LOVE juicers! i def want one!
I cant wait to see what you whip up!
Ooh, I’ve always wanted a juicer!! You’ll have to be sure to post all about your new creations, so that I’ll be prepared when I do get one.
I love my juicer! my favorite combo is carrot and pineapple juice!!
