For breakfast every morning we start our day with a healthy green drink that we juice in our Omega Juicer. We love this juicer because it’s a whole nutrition center that allows us to make our own homemade sauerkraut, nut butters, coconut oil, cream and butter and even baby food, if you have a baby to feed. It has a bigger chute than the older models which makes for faster juicing. We have used it pretty much everyday for 6 months now and it has a 15 year warranty so it was well worth the investment for us.
Ingredients
3 Large Organic Kale Leaves
3 each Organic Celery Stalks
1 Large Organic Cucumber (or Zucchini if you’re overloaded in the summer from your garden!)
1/4 bunch Organic Cilantro
1/4 bunch Organic Parsley
1 inch Organic Ginger Root
1 each Organic Lemon, juice of
1 pinch Cayenne Pepper
1 Tbsp Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
Makes 1 serving
Instructions
In juicer, alternate soft then hard, soft, hard veggies. Juice everything but the Lemon and just squeeze by hand into the green drink. (You can juice the whole lemon, it just makes it a little more sour so you may want to only use 1/2 lemon this way.) Add Cayenne Pepper and Organic Apple Cider Vinegar and drink.
Tip: This juicer is masticating rather than centrifugal so it doesn’t add a lot of air to the juice which can cause oxidation. Because of this, I like the taste better from this one than from the Centrifugal Juicer I had before. We can make 2-3 days worth of green juice and store in the fridge to save time rather than making it every morning. I also really like all the food processing options the Omega Juicer gives me like making homemade sauerkraut, nut butters, coconut butter/cream, baby food (if you have a baby) etc.
Then what’s even better for our busy schedules, we’ve figured out we can juice our green drinks for Cameron and me for the whole week, put them in these Plastic Freezer Jars, and freeze them. About two days before we will be drinking them, we transfer them from the freezer to the fridge in order to defrost. This has saved us so much time and the juice taste just as fresh!
