5 yummy recipies

Orange Zinger

1 orange

3 carrots

1/2 inch ginger root

1 apple

*This is pretty tasty, and the orange, apple, and ginger really blend together to reduce the taste of the carrots. The first day, I made it with only a little ginger, and the second day with more ginger to give it more spice. both ways were really good, but I think that leaving the recipe as is was a better flavor combination.

Hot Spice Carrots

4 carrots

1 handful spinach leaves

1 apple

1/2 inch ginger root

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

*THIS IS DELICIOUS!! It actually tastes like chai. The original recipe had cardamom seeds in it, but I don't have those just lying around, so skipped it. Also, the second time I made it, the spinach wasn't very juicy, so I switched it out for 3-4 leaves of kale/collard greens. Still tastes delicious!

Grapefruit

1 orange

2 grapefruits

1 lemon

*My favorite so far - it tastes like a warhead - sour and delicious! The recipe says you can also add some honey to sweeten it up a bit if needed, but I like it sour!

Orange Sunrise

2 oranges

2 kiwifruits

1 papaya, seeded

1 carrot

*I haven't actually tried this yet. I was distracted with making my own variation (below)

Orange-Kiwi

2 oranges

3 kiwifruits

*Really yummy and reminded me of that pink Snapple flavor with kiwi in it. Citrus-ey but with a bit of a kick at the end from the Kiwi.

Beet

2 beets

2 carrots

2 apples

*Well, you can tell that there are beets in there, since I can taste the "dirt" taste of beets, but the apples and carrots certainly go a long way to mask the taste of the beets.

Also, after reading a forum yesterday about what to do with the pulp from the juicer (I would really like to compost it, but it's way too cold out right now - I'll start doing that in the spring) I saved some from the carrots and Kale I juiced and mixed it in with some ground beef and rice for the dogs and they loved it!
