Green juice typically contains kale, spinach, and other dark leafy green vegetables, as well as cucumber, apple, and celery. Try to use organic produce, but if it's not available, soak and wash everything thoroughly, preferably using a natural produce wash.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of spinach
  • 2 celery stalks
  • 1 cup of kale (approximately 3 leaves)
  • 2 cups of romaine (approximately 3 leaves)
  • 1 cucumber
  • 1 green apple
  • 1/2 lemon, peeled

Preparation:

1. Wash the vegetables and dry them well. 2. Cut the cucumber, apple, and lemon into pieces small enough to fit into your juicer. 3. Process the ingredients, one by one, in a juicer. Larger leaves with a firm stem, such as kale and romaine, can be rolled up along the stem before being juiced. 4. Drink immediately. Juice can be stored for up to 24 hours covered tightly in the refrigerator.
