Cleanse Juices: Nutrient Bombs in a Glass

Participating in a Cleanse is more than just about “juicing”. However, homemade juices are a fantastic way to pack a ton of vitamins and other nutrients into one small glass any time of the year. Plus they’re simple, require little planning, and take only a few minutes to make.

Did you know kale is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet? When you pair it with other vegetables and/or fruits, you’re getting a nutrient-rich glass full of goodness!

And have you ever heard the phrase “eat the rainbow”? When you include several different colors of fruits and vegetables in your juices (or in your diet in general), you’re nourishing your body with a larger variety of vitamins and other nutrients.

Here are a few of my favorite juice recipes:

VIBRANT GREEN JUICE

INGREDIENTS:

2 apples
1 bunch celery
1 bunch kale
1 handful fresh mint

Juice all ingredients together. Add a squeeze of lemon.

BASIL CUCUMBER JUICE

INGREDIENTS:

1 bunch fresh basil 2 apples
2 cucumber
1 lime

Juice all ingredients together. Finish with a squeeze of lime.

My very own homemade Green Juice Zinger!

GREEN JUICE ZINGER

INGREDIENTS:

1 head romaine 1 bunch celery 1 bunch kale
2 apples

1 lemon
2" piece ginger

Juice all ingredients together.

I hope you enjoy these juices as much as I do!

With love,
