Juicing Forum

This morning I wanted something with more green. I think my taste buds are acclimating to this deliciousness wonderfully! Here's what I came up with.

2 slices pineapple (fresh pineapple pealed and sliced into 8 long slices)
1/2 pear
2 large handfuls of spinach
2 stalks celery
1/2 large cucumber (the kind wrapped in plastic, my favorite but you can use a regular one)
2 romaine lettuce leaves

This juice came out with more of a green taste to it, but had that hint of sweet from the pineapple. I could taste the celery, which has been one of the ingredients I'm still getting used to. But I poured it over ice, and enjoyed the taste!

It takes time to acclimate to the taste of juiced veggies. A hint for anyone new to juicing: Don't be afraid to make it more fruit than veggies in the beginning. Gradually add more veggies, it won't be long before you enjoy the taste. This juice would have been horrible to get down for me only 2 weeks ago!

Baby steps... remember every juice you drink makes a difference in your body and overall well being!

I'm not sure what it is about pears in juices... but for me they really are adding something wonderful.
