Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead!

It's the title of a movie that has me juicing my fruits and veggies like crazy!  Watch the trailer by clicking here!  My mother had given a us a Jack La Lanne juicer years ago and we pull it out when we have colds.  But today's juicing was truly mania!  Let's see we did the Mean Green juice and Joe's Breakfast juice... I've grown to love them both!

Serves 1

Mean Green Juice:
  • 1 Bunch of Kale
  • 4 Celery Stalks
  • 2 Green Apples
  • 1 large Cucumber
  • small bunch of Parsley
  • small bunch of Cilantro
  • 1/2 Lemon, no rind.
  • Ginger Root (thumb sized amount)



Joe's Breakfast Juice:

  • 2 stalks of pineapple (1/2 a pineapple with out the skin)
  • 4 cups of water melon (I cut off the green rind but you don't have to.)
  • 1/2 lemon, no rind



Then, I took about 10 cups of tomatoes, sliced, blended, and poured in the crock pot!  Added garlic salt, dried basil, and oregano to taste and simmered all day.  It turned into spaghetti sauce and was delish!

I think I'll keep this up.  Maybe even do a full-blown juice fast!  Let me know if you do something similar!  I'd love to hear your recipes!
