This is the first glass of juice I've ever made, and I'll be honest, I was pretty nervous. I didn't want it to taste like a glass of turds because I don't have the strongest stomach, and also because I knew Chris would want a taste and I want to seem like a pro at everything in his eyes; and I didn't want to waste perfectly good food in my quest for a healthy glass of homemade juice. I'm here to tell you my friends that I was successful! I juiced half an apple, a carrot, a celery stalk, and a few kale leaves. It sounds kind of like a weird combination, but it tasted really refreshing; kind of like the sweet flavor of the apple with a little bit of the cool zest of the celery. I plan to put a few strawberries and oranges in today's juice, and later this week I'm getting some cucumbers, beets, and pineapple to add to my juice. This is going to be fun!
So are you a juicer? If so, what is your favorite or least favorite combination? I feel like the possibilities are endless, so I want to start off slow with things I already know have a good flavor before I get brave and branch out. I also want to use spinach, but I'm not sure how well that will go with fruit. Thoughts?
If you follow me on twitter, then you probably know we FINALLY got snow! Unfortunately it's pretty much all melted now, but while it lasted, oh it was beautiful. I love snow so, so much. I am eagerly awaiting spring and bare legs again, but I still can't help wanting about a foot of snow before then!
