Delightfully juicey!

We've been loving juice-ing it up to make sure we get lots of good nutrients from veggies and citrus fruits! My fave recipe that makes 2 large serves is;
1 orange, peeled
1 lemon, peeled
3 or 4 sticks of celery
1 beetroot, peeled
3 or 4 carrots
1 cucumber
A thumb of fresh ginger, peeled

Cut off any knobbly ends and the celery leaves and chop into large pieces that will fit in the juicer. Juice the ginger fairly early on and alternate the different veggies. Poor into a large jug and stir before serving!

If you're on a weight loss regime, we've found supplementing this large serve as dinner, or having it with a small protein based snack, like this homemade sundried tomatoe, nut & seed cracker, with homemade hommus and fresh tomatoes!
