Adri Likes… Her New Juicer!

Hello!

Well this is exciting!  My first post!  Welcome, welcome.  Please make yourself at home.  Well, not that at home, we do use coasters in this household.

Anywho, let’s get started!

In an attempt to increase my fruit and vegetable consumption, I asked for a juicer for Christmas.  It arrived this month and I used it for the first time today!  So much fun!  Initially I had been using a regular old blender, which does do the trick, although the juice comes out a little thicker.

Presenting, the Breville Juice Fountain Compact:

INGREDIENTS

Kale, apple and ginger

Kale, apple and ginger

  • 1 Delicious Red apple
  • 3 handfulls of kale
  • small piece of ginger

NOTES

This was the first time that I purchased this chopped kale and I would not recommend it for a juicer.  The juicer’s blade speed created a wind current so whenever I inserted the chopped kale pieces, they would fly out of the juicer.  I am going to try this next time with full kale leaves.

The final product was delicious, much better than the results I get from a regular blender.
