Adventures in Juicing

 I've been juicing since I got my fabulous new juicer on Christmas Eve! It's something I've always wanted to do, literally for years. I don't know why it took me so long to get one.

The first thing I did was jump onto Pinterest and pin every juice recipe in existence. I made sure to follow every recipe exactly. If it called for a half inch of ginger, I got my ruler out.

To make a long story short, many Food Network mornings and a fortnight later, I am now coming up with my own recipes and eyeballing the portions myself. I like to call this, Everything But The Kitchen Sink & No Expensive Fruits And Vegetables, Juice. I made a large mason jar worth of juice, which made for a tasty and filling breakfast. If you follow recipes and are curious how to make this orange colored goodness:

Everything But The Kitchen Sink & No Expensive Fruits And Vegetables, Juice
4 Whole Carrots
1 Granny Smith Apple
1 Orange
1 Cucumber

1/2 Lemon (You could do a whole one. I just had a half left in the fridge.)
1/2 Lime, peeled unless you love bitter things
1/2 Pineapple
1 Banana



It come out very orange - reminiscent of a Halloween store clearance section.

Enjoy! What are your favorite juicing recipes??
