It’s been far too long since I last used my Breville juicer:
After yesterday’s Dawsonsgiving splurge, I thought I’d get right back on track by making some green juice this morning. Green juice is a great post-splurge breakfast– it provides my body with lots of nutrients and enzymes, without all the fiber– so my body can keep working on yesterday’s massive feast without piling on more to digest!
Here’s what went into my juicer:
And here’s what came out:
Green juice always tastes better when it’s served in a pretty glass.
This one was actually VERY tart! I guess my apple-to-lemon ratio was way off!! I ended up using my favorite trick to get it down– I stuck a straw in my glass, aimed it directly to the back of my throat, then gulped it down– without really tasting it!
Next time, I’ll be more conscious of how much lemon I put in… it seriously sent chills down my spine it was so tart!!
I have to say, though, I have yet to drink a single sip of coffee this morning, and I have a TON of energy! I’m seconds away from bouncing off walls right now! I love that effect of green juice.
And I need that energy… I was up until midnight watching this:
Yep, we watched the ENTIRE first season of Dawson’s Creek yesterday. All 13 episodes!! Whew!
I seriously don’t get why anyone found Dawson attractive, though… am I missing something??
Oh, and Yasha thoroughly enjoyed Dawsonsgiving, too:
She was DESPERATE for turkey!! (we haven’t had a real one in our house for years, so she was EXCITED!!!!) Can’t you tell?










Awww Yasha is so cute!!
I really need to get me a juicer, they look like a lot of fun actually. I seem to blend everything….but juicing would be easier I think!
This looks great, I love any type of green juice!
I used to drink celery, parsley, kale, ginger and lemon……first thing in the morn. WOW!
I would miss my coffee….
XXOO
Wow, that green juice sounds intense! I am trying to learn to like celery, but it just hasn’t happened for me yet. If I put even a tiny bit of celery in my juice, it’s ruined for me– and I have to use my straw trick to suck it down.
I think blending is actually easier than juicing– cleaning up the juicer is more labor-intensive! I just end up using whichever I’m in the mood for at the moment…
P.S. I missed my coffee later today– after work I took a 2 hour nap!! Looks like I need coffee tomorrow if I’m going to get anything done
