Anybody have a juicer? Recipes?

two i make often.

1) apples, carrots, celery, parsley

2) pears, spinnich, beets, mint

really, add all the healthy stuff and one sweet fruit to balance the flavor and it will be good.

i have one.

got my JL juicer about 3 years ago.

I suggest getting a bunch of these:



because it takes some time to clean up after juicing, i usually make about a weeks worth at once and store it in these containers.

make only what you will drink in 5-7 days tho because any longer than that and the enzymes will start to break down and the texture is less than pleasant (pretty slimy)

While that seems like a great idea, don't the fruit and veggies separate fairly quickly making it a little gross?

I got a Jack Lalanne juicer a few years ago. I've used it about 4 times. It's a bitch to clean.

You should tell them to get you a margaritaville margarita maker instead. It's awesome.

What are the health benefits of juicing?

It makes a very concentrated fruit and veggie drink loaded with vitamins and minerals. That's all I got

Been wanting to buy one, but keep hearing from people the same complaint re clean-up. Is there a make/model that's more clean-up friendly?

I also see people complain about the cleanup, but I've never had that problem. It takes all of 3 minutes to clean my Breville compact.

Thanks!

You get the nutrition of all the fruits and veggies without your stomach having to break it all down. It can immediately be absorbed by your stomach. You wouldn't be able to sit and consume those 10 pieces of fruit or veggies in a sitting. You do miss out on the fiber, but you'll get fiber from other food sources. Add chia seeds! Juicing gives you lots of energy and great digestion.

I just had grapefruit (which I've always hated but forcing myself to drink), orange, apple, celery and carrot. Honeydew and kale is good . I have apple carrot beet ginger and lemon, sometimes spinach, in the morning.

Eta I have a Breville 930XL or something like that. Less than 5 minutes for clean up. I clean the screen with a brush that came with the juicer. I would highly suggest getting one, it saves me more time than the sponge or dishwasher would.

Bumped for emboslice.
