Green Grapefruit

3 large kale leaves

Handful of spinach

Handful of mint

1 large grapefruit

1 lemon

1 half thumb of ginger

3 cucumbers

First, a put the kale leaves and spinach through the juicer. I think it’s better to juice leaves first. For one, you can use the pulp in other dishes. Two, the juicier fruits push the leaves out of the juicer. Simply juicing goes much easier.

 

 I used the kale and spinach pulp by adding it into the leftover cabbage soup I made last night that’s continuing to be heated in the slow cooker for tonight’s super. 

Next, I added the mint leaves followed by the grape fruit (If your juice catcher has a screen to remove pulp it’s a good idea to clean out the screen after juicing leaves before juicing the rest of your vegetables and fruits). Then, I added some lemon slices. Between, adding lemon slices I add in the ginger. I believe this helps juice the ginger nugget. Last, I add the cucumbers. I feel that it helps push everything out of my particular juicer (Omega J8003).

BTW the Omega J8003 is awesome. If your looking into a juicer and confused which one to get --- the Omega will be your best friend. 

Basically, this tastes like grapefruit. If you don't like grapefruit then I wouldn't recommend this... or I suggest adding half of an apple. 

 But if your like me, you have a talent for easily gaining weight and thus do your very best to stay clear of sugar or too much fruit.

It for sure doesn't taste like a salad for those of you who don't really care for veggies.
