Setting up Your Juice Station.
- Giving your juicer a permanent place on the kitchen work top is a major step toward making healthy juicing a part of daily life.
- Find a place where juicer and blender can stand together. Close to the sink is good.
- Keep the chopping board, a sharp knife and the lining bags for the pulp container there too.
- Print off this list of Juicing Basics and hang it on the wall behind your juicer.
You Can Juice Any kind of Fruit or Vegetable.
Vegetables Spinach, broccoli, cabbage, cucumber, zucchini, carrot, pepper, celery, cauliflower, kale, fennel, tomato beetroot and many more.
Fruits Apples, oranges, melon, pear, plums, berries, mango, peaches, nectarines, tangerines, papaya and many more.
Experiment With These Juicy Tips!
- To sweeten vegetable juices use apples, pineapple or carrots.
- To add a tang to sweet fruit juices try 1/4 of a lime or a piece of lemon.
- Oranges, lemons and limes need to be peeled but leave the pith on (valuable nutrients)
- Ginger adds a distinctly exotic taste. Use a very small piece to begin with. You can always add more next time.
- Use herbs, parsley, mint, basil or anything that is left in the fridge. Even salad leaves you won't use tomorrow.
To Transform Your Healthy Juice into a Delicious Smoothie.
- Place 1/2 an avocado in a blender with some ice cubes. Pour over the juice and blend for 30 seconds.
- A banana works well too and kids love the creamy sweet taste.
- Live yoghurt puts a natural creamy twist on any juice, veggie or fruit.
- Experiment with nuts, seeds, dates, prunes, manuka honey and cinnamon.
