Juicing - Foodie Fridays

Juicing.

These days, either you're doing it, or know someone who is.

And no, we're not talking about the old meaning of 'juicing' - this is literally making juice!

If you've followed us on instagram or facebook, you may have seen some photos of our juicing adventures.

We knew we weren't eating nearly enough vegetables (or fruits), but other than that, our clean eating habits were great! Couple that with the gym, and we were on a healthy path that not many Americans these days take.

Then we watched a few food documentaries. I have a knack for finding obscure documentaries on Netflix. Among the many that we watched, two stood out. One you may have heard of - "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead". The other maybe not - "Hungry for Change".

They introduced us to the idea of juicing and it's benefits. It's also a super great tasting way to eat your veggies!!

One of our favorite recipes has been carrot, apple, and ginger. The ginger is great for any digestion issues you may have (acidic stomach, anyone?) and it also gives you a little bit of a 'drunk' feeling at first.

Many of our recipes have come from www.rebootwithjoe.com - it's Joe Cross's website (from "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead")

Here are some of the various ones we've tried so far: (and I have liked every one! - Pretty awesome for a picky veggie eater.) I even tried kale!

Do you juice? I'd love to hear your favorite recipes!! If you do not, grab a juicer and try it out!!
