Seriously, I think this juice rocks!  A good friend who also has BC passed this recipe on to me.  She's done a much better job of changing her diet than I have but I just love this juice and have no problem adding it to my diet. To me, it tastes like a wonderfully fresh salad in liquid form.

If you give it a try, please let me know what you think.

2-3 med to large carrots, ends removed

2 large leaves of kale, ribs removed. Kale ribs don't go through a juicer well.

Half a cucumber, peeled if not organic

2-3 med to large stalks of celery, fibers removed to avoid clogging juicer

 

Put these through the juicer in the order listed.

Skim off the foam (unless you just love veggie foam)

Squeeze 1/4 of a lemon's juice into mixture.

Add about 3 shakes of Tabasco (optional).

Drizzle with a bit of olive oil.

The fat in the oil helps you absorb the fat soluble vitamins in the produce.

 

Last, but not least, pour in a double shot of vodka. KIDDING!

    Basia ... Please let me know what you think of it.  Don't be surprised if you don't actually get a lot of juice out of the kale.  I think the lemon juice, the hot sauce, and the drizzle of olive oil (use evoo if you can) really add so much to this recipe.

    We make a double batch of it and store in the fridge in a plastic jug with a screw on lid. You'll need to give it a good shake before pouring a glass.

    Oh and it's MUCH better after it chills.

    I bought kale this morning, will try this tomorrow am, will post how it tastes.  Looking forward to trying it.  I have to wait till my husband comes home in the am to try it, we agreed we would juice together, otherwise I know he wont drink it without me.  

    Last night tried, cucumber, carrot with lemon, it was so tasty!

    Tried the juice this afternoon, and it was yummy. I was very surprised. But I did add an apple to it to soften the taste slightly.  My husband said this was the best juice recipe we have tried yet so it is a keeper! Thanks for sharing.
