I bought my juicer last summer because I found I was spending a lot of money on juice from places like Whole Foods, Nekter, and local juice bars. It made more fiscal sense to buy a juicer. Mine is the Breville BJE510XL The Juice Fountain® Multi Speed Juicer and I am crazy about it.
A lot of times people misconceive smoothie-blending to be the same thing as juicing. It’s not – you want to remove those fibers that make you full so you are absorbing way more nutrients and vitamins.
I’d say my juicer was probably one of the best purchases I made last year. I see people paying hundreds for juice cleanses and I just can’t fathom spending that amount of money! With that amount of money, you could buy a juicer and make it at home. Granted, it takes away the convenience (cleaning juicers is not a cake walk), but it’s much more frugal.
This green juice is my favorite because you only have to buy 6 ingredients at the store. The tricky thing about juicing is if you buy a ton of fresh ingredients, they will go bad quickly. Unless you plan on juicing all at once to store in mason jars, I recommend only getting a few ingredients each trip.
You can add more ginger or lemon if you prefer, (I love lots of lemon) but the apples do a fantastic job of cutting out the bitterness of the kale.
Do you have a favorite juice recipe? Do share! I’m always looking to try new ones!
This looks SO good and I've been making fruit smoothies lately but haven't tried Green juice. I will definitely have to soon.

I absolutely love my juicer and especially making green juices with them. I do find celery and ginger way too overpowering and assertive for my tastes. All about the cucumber, spinach, kale, apples, and pears!

I have never try juicing out before. I have heard great things about it
I love green juice but I'm not a celery kinda gal. Would still try anything once!

I find I don't taste the celery very much – but then again I don't mind it, so maybe that's why! You could alway substitute romaine lettuce :).
This looks good! I want to start making smoothies more often and this may be the next one 🙂
Yum!! Ill have to try this!!
