Juice Recipes ~ National Nutrition Month & Beyond!
National Nutrition Month is sadly coming to an end. However any healthy habits we have formed this month can and should stay with us for the long run. Let’s talk about something that can sometimes be controversial. I am talking about juice. Some people don’t like it or don’t like to enjoy it because many of the juices available in stores can be loaded with sugar and additives. I for one love Juice! But with my surgery I can only have all natural juices. That’s why lately I have been putting my juicer to good use. I’ve been using it so much in fact that I am going to have to be getting a new one, because mine finally gave up on me today. But that is another post for another day. Here are three delicious juice recipes that are perfect for National Nutrition month and beyond! I hope you like them as much as I do.

That blueberry smoothie sounds phenomenal. I’d love to whip that up.
THank you for some new ideas ! I get stuck in a juice rut
Yum! Juicing has always been a favorite of mine. The blueberry one sounds so good with the pear. I would like to try new juices, I have never tried beets before!
I’ve put spinach and carrots in my fruit smoothies before, but never thought of using beets or bok choy…sounds interesting and I’m sure healthy. thanks for the ideas.
I don’t have a juicer yet but I might have to get one. I too am sick of all the artificial sugar and flavorings in most juices.
I would like to try most of these but would have to leave out the apple (allergic) thanks for sharing!!
Love them all, especially the beet.apple juice. I’ll have to try these.
Yum!! Thank you so much for sharing these juice recipes, they all sound delicious! I have never made my own juice before so I can’t wait to try. 🙂 I bet it tastes amazing!
