Time to expand our vegetable universe and build some juice blends that include some other vegetables along with our trusty dark leafy greens. You might be surprised at how many different vegetables will make tasty juices, all bringing a load of nutrition and great color to your glass.
Red Sunrise
A gorgeous mix of red and orange juices will help you kickstart your morning, even if you’re not getting up with the sun.
- 1 medium sized beet
- 2 carrots
- 2 large oranges
Peel your oranges, chop up your beet and feed everything into your juicer. This juice recipe will make a big full serving.
Power Green Juice
Juice from every green source imaginable, with both fruit and vegetables in this mix.
- 1 shot of spinach juice
- 1 shot of kale or wheatgrass juice
- 3 large stalks of celery
- 1/2 a medium size cucumber
- 1/2 lemon, peeled
- 2 Granny Smith apples
Other than the lemon, you don’t need to peel anything here. Just get it all juiced up and you’re ready to go.
Cucumber Mint
This is a bit lighter and the mint makes it extra refreshing. Plan on having this juice blend around on the next hot summer day.
- 2 apples
- 2 medium cucumbers
- 1 small handful of fresh mint leaves
Chop, juice and that’s all there is to it.
Hint of Veggie Green
This is for the fruit-juice lovers who aren’t looking of a very vegetable-heavy juice blend recipe.
- 2 cups watermelon chunks
- 2 small apples
- 1 shot kale or wheatgrass juice
Mix and juice.
Tummy Time Juice
Sorry for the cutesy title. This is a fabulous juice blend to help boost your digestive health with cabbage juice. You can use either red or green cabbage, it’s up to you.
- 1/2 medium head of cabbage
- 2 carrots
- 2 apples
- 2 large stalks of celery
Chop and juice. Don’t be afraid of the large amount of cabbage. It lends a little zestiness to your final juice that’s is nicely balanced with the sweeter fruit and carrot.
Pepper Detox Blend
Cayenne is a really popular ingredient for any detox recipes as it helps increase blood flow and help flush out toxins in the body.
- 1 red bell pepper
- 2 large carrots
- 1 apple
- 1/2 cucumber
- 1 shot wheatgrass or spinach juice
- 1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
As usual, just juice everything and enjoy. If it has too much cayenne kick for your taste, knock it down to about 1/4 tsp instead.
There is a huge range of juice-able vegetables that you can combine and blend along with fruit and leafy greens to create any number of super healthy juices. These should get you started until your own creativity comes up with more. Remember to juice it up with the Healthy Juicer!
