Karmacharger Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Maybe I should put this in the recipes section but since I'm looking for some instead of offering them up... I thought it would be okay here. Please let me know if I should re-post. Does anyone have any good juice recipes? I have no clue what proportions of veggies to use to balance the flavour. I have an amazing juicer here but no clue where to start. My ideal juice would have carrots, kale, apples, cucumber, ginger, lemon and/or orange. Please feel free to suggest other additions. Thanks!!

Lean and Green Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Kool. For the best tasting green juice blend, proportion-wise, I would recommend, Two green apples and one lemon. Then fill up the blender until it is about 3/4 of the way full (i have a vitamix 64oz container) or perhaps a little more than that, packed down and then just add water and blend. The apples and lemon make it sweet enough that i don't need carrots to add to the sweetness of it when i'm trying to avoid sugars. I try to either mix up herbs (parsley, cilantro, wartercress, dandelions, etc, etc..) and dark greens (bok choy, kale, collards, chards, etc...) or have just herbs one day and then just dark greens another day. Hope this helps.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Carrots + cantaloupe = great. There's always the good ole' carrot beet celery combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karmacharger Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 Thanks for the tips! I'm not using a blender but a giagantic champion juice. Courtesy of my boyfriend's mother (she doesn't know he gave it to me)... The motor on that thing could power a car... I guess I'll have to use trial error to figure out proportions. I appreciat the mix suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
