Dark Green Delight using my Green Star 1000

I’m going through this green drinks phase right now (and I am definitely not alone!). I make green smoothies for breakfast, juice wheatgrass when I have it, and I’ve been loving my all-green ingredient juices. Really, I just keep a lot of greens in the fridge and get creative. However, I just made this juice and love love loved it. It’s pretty green though, so it might take some getting used to if you’re new to the green movement hehe.

All the wonderful greens in here mean this drink has lots of chlorophyll, iron, magnesium, vitamin C, bioflavanoids, and many many more wonderful things that are great for your overall health. Give it a try and feel yourself bursting with energy all day long!

Ingredients:

• 1 handful kale
• 1 handful spinach
• 1 handful parsley
• 1 handful basil
• 2 stalks of celery

Steps:

1. Rinse off the above ingredients.
2. Send them through your juicer.
3. Sip on the green goodness! Make sure you put any leftovers in a sealed container to avoid oxidation.

Serves: 1-2 (depending on your juicer and how much you like to drink)

Hint: you can play around with your ratios to get your preferred flavor down. This juice is just full of lots of different very strong flavors. They can mix together and overpower each other. If you find you tend to like one flavor more, just throw in a bit more of it, and a bit less of the other thing. It will easily overpower your less favorite flavor but still create this wacky green medley on your taste buds. YUM!

If you’re juicing leafy greens, you will get best results with a masticating juicer. I used my Green Star 1000 on this recipe and it worked like a charm- extremely dry pulp every time!
