Cup of Deliciousness. |
For awhile I was back and forth about buying a juicer. They are so expensive I started to think that with the price of the juicer plus the price of all the fruit (and wasted product from the fruit) that I should just forget about juicing at home.
Then I saw the NutriBullet commercial... I was intrigued... I liked that it didn't take all the fiber out of the food and that it could break up nuts and seeds. (I definitely wanted something that could grind flax seeds!)
I was talking to someone about the NutriBullet, and she said to just buy the Magic Bullet. I was hesitant, but for $50 I figured it was worth a try!
ANDDDDD... I LOVE IT! The Magic Bullet is definitely the best $50 I've ever spent. I use it every single day. I either make green juice, green smoothies, fruit smoothies, or sometimes a mixture of everything! It is so convenient and easy to clean. And if I don't drink the entire juice, I screw the top on and put it in the fridge.
Not to mention, you can use it for a million other things... soups, pasta sauces, etc. Comes with a recipe group full of great ideas. But I've been so busy juicing I haven't gotten around to it!

Furthermore, I can 100% feel a difference in myself. I have so much more energy than I used to. I definitely believe that getting your nutrients from actual foods is A TON better than a multi-vitamin that was created in a lab. Your body recognizes the vitamins and minerals from real food better!
Here are some pictures of a recent juice recipe I created... and that is another great part of it... you can experiment.. take a sip... don't like it? Add some more fruit/greens/whatever you want! You can toss them in WHOLE. Virtually no chopping. You can even put frozen veggies or fruits in there too. I will start to document my juice/smoothie experiments more often, but this one turned out great!
The Ingredients I started with: A lime, frozen pineapple, ginger root, 2 handfuls of kale, heaping Tbsp of flax seed. |
I used about an inch of ginger root |
|
I then decided to throw in a few dashes of Cayenne for good measure. |
|
Throw it all in the Magic Bullet cup. |
|
Fill up with water about 3/4 of the way. (This is important! Otherwise it will make something of the consistency of baby food!) |
|
Lock into place and watch it blend! |
|
Voila! (and this was after I drank some of it btw... too delicious to wait) |
