Chew on This | Morning Ritual Juice

Monday I wrote about my wavering tastebuds. Their need for savory or sweet, comfort food one day, and the next, only bright, fresh flavors. It has been somewhat maddening. However, one thing that hasn't been in flux these last few months is my overwhelming love, and need, for my Morning Ritual Juice.

I have become addicted to juicing and the above combination of fruits and vegetables is my absolute favorite (so far). Look at all of the beautifully vibrant color! All of that color equals a serious punch of health.

Brimming with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and energy boosting goodness - your body will be begging for more. And, it tastes great! It has become such a wonderful way to start my day. Try it, I'm quite sure you'll love it!

Here's our recipe:

Morning Ritual Juice*

(makes 2-4 servings)

1 whole organic lemon, cleaned (with peel)

2 organic apples, cleaned and cored (with peel)

3 stalks organic celery, cleaned
1 1/2 C organic carrots, cleaned

1/2 large organic cucumber, cleaned (with peel)

1 organic red beet, cleaned (my beet was the size of a medium lemon)

1 inch ginger root, cleaned

Run all of your ingredients through your juicer. Pour over ice and enjoy immediately. 

*I don't usually designate my ingredient lists as organic or nonorganic. For this particular recipe, however, using organic produce (especially when juicing certain items unpeeled) will ensure your juice is pure and free of pesticides. If you use nonorganic produce, make sure to peel.
