Mighty Rainbow Power Machine
Today is another week of making healthy choices and it starts with making another pitcher of deliciousness featuring Rainbow Chards, Beets, and Apples!
Ingredients:
1 batch of Rainbow Chards
1/3-2/5 of a Whole Beet
6 Apples (used Red Delicious)
Output:
2 pitchers (~6 cups) of deliciousness
Instructions:
1) Make sure you give a good wash of all your fruits and vegetables before juicing!
2) Commence juicing! I prefer to juice in the order of driest to wettest.
3) I ended up only using 2/5 of the Beet as it has a really strong flavor and color and a little goes a long
way!
4) I juiced the organic Rainbow Chards first, it generated about 250 mL of liquid with my batch.
4) Then I juiced the Beet, it generated about 100 mL of liquid.
5) Last came in the Apples! It generated about 800 mL of liquid.
6) Then I portioned the total liquids equally into two pitchers and voila! If you don't want too much of a strong Beet taste to it, would suggest putting a little less from this recipe. Let me know what you think!

Lean Mean Green Machine - Apples n Kale
Time to get my greens in for this week in liquid form that is! I have a juicer that extracts the juice and filters out the fiber/pulp. I bought 3 batches of Kale and used 6 Red Delicious Apples in my recipe. Generates about 6 cups. I tried Granny Smith Apples before but it was too tart for my taste. For a better idea on the ratios, I measured how much each produced in liquid respectively.
With 3 batches of Kale, I generated about a little over 10 fl oz / 325mL.
With 6 Apples, I generated about close to 30 fl oz / 900 mL.
Give it a try and let me know what you think!
