Jim is an absolute stickler for following all the juicing rules. Not many fruits, mostly leafy greens, a little bit of ginger and you MUST add lemon juice and apple cider vinegar at the end.
Me? I’m a rule breaker.
OR I just can’t take the taste of straight kale and chard. I like a little sweetness and I LOVE beets and carrots. “Too much sugar!” Jim will yell as I jam another carrot into our Greenstar.
Boys-can’t live with them, can’t live without them.
And when said boy juices ALL your greens before you’re even out on bed on a busy day, you’re stuck left juicing the leftovers. And today, those leftovers were watermelon, cucumber and limes. And a wee bit of honeydew. And DAMN, was it delicious.
Sure, I felt a little guilty that I didn’t have any superfood greens in there. But it has great taste, and hey, cucumbers and limes are green!
I think it irks Jim that I don’t post any of his awesome juice recipes. But with all due repesct, when he juices at 5 AM, I am just not up for taking notes for a later post. So sorry babe, but my juice recipe is the only one on the blog thus far!
Half an organic mini watermelon
1 large cucumber
1/2 cup honeydew melon
Juice of 3 limes
- Juice all ingredients and enjoy!
Delicious!
