MrsWhite- juicer

Court0026 · January 2012

When you get a minute, I would love to hear about your juicer. Have you been drinking it too?

The idea of thick juice kind of makes me want to gag, but I am getting desperate for getting more healthy stuff in my kids and they are currently both growing or something and begging for food all day long.

We bought the Jack Lalaine (sp?) Juicer and we've loved it so far. You get a big recipe booklet inside the box when you buy the machine. They even give you recipes to use the pulp which I thought was cool. The juice really isn't thick. I've made DH the same juice every morning; Carrot, Cucumber, Kale and Apple. Some mornings I added beets, 1 I added red pepper and 1 I added pineapple. They're yummy so far. Justin LOOOOVES making it but won't touch the stuff. He will only drink ice water though and won't touch anything else.

The problem I have with it is that it takes a ton of veggies to make juice. This morning I used 2 full carrots, 1/2 of a cucumber, a handful of Kale and 1/2 an apple to make 8oz juice. It gets kinda expensive. We can't wait to use it with our garden and farmer's market finds.

Not to butt in.. but I have a Breville juicer. I haven't used it in a while because I don't want to deal with the set up, cleanup, and we store it in the basement so I don't want to be trekking it up and down the stairs.

But - the juice isn't thick. The strainer part is very fine, so like for apples, the juice is like regular juice. I mostly made stuff like carrot-apple type juice, nothing too crazy. I should get it out again though And MrsWhite does have a good point, it uses up a ton of fruits/veggies!
