The kids were dying to try the new juice. Ella was NOT a fan. Everett LOVED it. Seriously- he's crazy! He couldn't get enough. Enough of kale, cucumber, celery, ginger and apple- I barely liked it, and I love vegetables, so I'm shocked that he loved it. This is definitely my new sneaky way of getting random vegetables in him.
Since I haven't started the cleanse yet and can still eat solid food, we made these delicious organic hamburgers tonight- I highly recommend sauteing red onions in olive oil with salt and pepper until they are almost caramelized and putting them on your burger. O M G. They tasted just like onion strings without the breading and deep fry. I was eating them plain.
Try including a lemon when you juice. Juicing 1 lemon adds a nice tartness that offsets some of the weird taste when you juice the vegetables.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite green smoothie is kale+spinach (or I use about a cup of that cruciferous blend that TJs sells now, which has brussel sprouts, kale, red cabbage and maybe spinach too?), 1 cup frozen pineapple, 1 cup coconut water, juice of 1/2 lime (add more to taste), 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder. It tastes like key lime pie a bit...perfect summer smoothie (and both my kids love it).
