1/1/2019 Green Juice Recipe - w/ Kale, Cucumber, Celery, & Apples

I just LOVE juice and smoothie recipes. While this is my favorite juice recipe, I absolutely
love these other smoothie recipes: peanut butter and jelly smoothie bowls, cherry
smoothie bowl, tropical green smoothie, blueberry mu in smoothie.

You guys. This is my FAVORITE Green Juice Recipe. I’ve actually been drinking it for
almost two years now (ever since we got our new juicer) and I can’t believe I never had
the thought to share it with you!

For me, juicing is never a meal substitute, but something I add on to really pack in my
fruits and veggies. This Green Juice Recipe makes me feel so good and I actually really
do enjoy how it tastes. It’s also the perfect gateway into juicing if you’re somebody who
doesn’t necessarily love the taste of vegetables!

Trevor and I started making this Green Juice Recipe a few months before our wedding,
because, like I said, there are days when I’ll eat more chocolate chips than I do fruits and

https://showmetheyummy.com/green-juice-recipe/ 5/28

veggies.

WHAT DOES GREEN JUICE DO FOR YOU?

While I really do love my fruits and veggies, I know it isn’t realistic (for me personally) to
get what I need simply by eating them every day! That why I love, love, LOVE juicing.

Green juice for me = more fruits, veggies, and nutrients into my body!

IS IT BETTER TO JUICE OR BLEND? IS JUICING REALLY BETTER FOR


YOU?

Now, I know, juicing is kiiind of controversial, because let’s be real, it’s probably better to
actually EAT your veggies then drink them, because you’re missing out on all the fibers
in the fruits and veggies, but drinking them is easier for me, and heck, that’s way better
3K than nothing, yes?

WHAT ARE THE BEST GREEN JUICE RECIPES?

While I think THIS is the best green juice recipe. It’s also good to mix it up a bit! Here’s
a great article containing 11 Healthy Green Juice Recipes.

Personally, I think THIS is the best tasting juice recipe and has a ton of benefits:

1. Um. It’s healthy. This recipe is PACKED with tons of fruits and veggies.
2. It makes me feel good. Hello glow-y skin and happy tummy.
3. It makes me make healthier choices throughout the day!
4. It makes me CRAVE fruits and veggies more. Before juicing, I wasn’t a huge fan of
cucumbers, but now? Gimme!

HOW DO I MAKE A GREEN JUICE?

Step 1: Wash and prep your veggies. Need to save time? Do this the night before!

Step 2: Ummm juice them! We use this juicer, and yes, it’s a little pricy, but think of it as
an investment! We’ve been using it for almost two years and we’re still crazy about it!

Step 2.5 – this is optional: Chill your juice!

HOW LONG ARE JUICED VEGETABLES GOOD FOR?

It’s really best to drink green juice right away, but CAN be le (covered) in the fridge for
24-48 hours.

Depending on the kind of juicer you have (look at your manual), it’s best to drink your
3K juice immediately. With the juicer we have, this green juice can be kept in an airtight
SHARES
container in the fridge for 24 hours. I prefer my juice ice cold.

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE LEFTOVER PULP?

Honestly, you can throw it away if you want, but if the thought of wasting really bugs
you, here’s a really great article on 20 Smart Uses for Le over Juice Pulp. Personally, I

Packed with loads of fruits and vegetables, this Green Juice Recipe is so good for you,
naturally gluten free and vegan, and is ridiculously delicious!

HOW MANY CALORIES ARE IN A GREEN JUICE?

Depends, but this recipe contains about 83 calories per cup!

March 30, 2016 at 4:37 pm

I am not a ginger person, never have been, and always skip it in recipes.
Does it give the drink a strong taste?? I make these types of drinks every
day for us . I keep wanting to try it again but somehow just can’t quite get myself to do it.
Maybe because I’ve never used the fresh. Does that make a di erence? The smell does me
in with my touchy stomach but maybe since I’ve had my gallbladder out it will be better !
Thanks

personally don’t think the ginger is very strong in this recipe. My
suggestion? Start with a little, maybe only 1/2 inch, and go from there! I think

Hello Jennifer! Excellent green juice recipe, and good choice for your
juicer, too. I love Omega juicers and have the J8005. It’s held up for years,
now, and I’ve learned all of the little tricks for how to get more juice out of pulpy fruits,
such as, juicing the hardier items a er them like the kale, carrots (if they’re in a recipe),
etc.

Your juice images are so crisp and clear. That’s how I found this juice recipe (perusing
through Pinterest looking for good juice recipes to re-pin). I went ahead and re-pinned it
to our website’s juice recipes board and am going to tweet it out, too. Cheers, and happy
juicing to you and Trevor!
