Did you hear that Jack LeLanne died yesterday? Do a quick google search if you have no idea who I’m talking about and you’ll find an amazing story of an amazing guy!
I’m sure everyone knows who that is- the famous Jack LeLanne Juicer? We’ve all heard of that right?
Well since I’m sitting here sipping my favorite green juice right now (made with my Jack LeLanne juicer of course!) I thought I’d just share some of my fav juice combos!
I have the Jack LeLanne Deluxe juicer ($150 retail, but I got it for $89 at Costco!!)
Here are some of my fav combos of fruits/veg…
My number one fav is spinach(or kale), celery, cucumber, and an apple (red or green depending on the mood I’m in)
Sometimes I will have just one in the morning, but most of the time I like to take one to drink on the way to school or work, then have another one hanging out in my lunch box (kept cold with ice packs) for a little pick me up in the afternoon. You would be amazed at the amount of energy one of these babies will give you.
I also like to add beets and carrots to the mix sometimes…
This one’s kale, carrot, and apple.
This one’s carrot, beet, apple, and ginger. The ginger adds a really nice warmth to the juice and the beet makes it such a pretty color!
Those are just a few ideas. We’ve also just juiced one type of fruit- clementines (yummy but SO sweet), honeycrisp apples, grapes and blueberries, etc… I haven’t had a bad one yet!
Pretty much I always do an apple to cut down on the greeny flavor a bit. I also always do something green- either kale or spinach.
I notice a huge increase in energy when I drink my green juice. Not sure on the science of this one, looks like I’ll have to do a little research to find out why!
Anyway, here’s to you Jack…cheers!
