C – Happy New Year!!!
I can’t believe it’s a new year already. It just seems like yesterday when I was making a resolution about eating healthy. Yeah, I broke it. It’s OK, though. I just needed to do it again.
Hopefully, with more motivation this year.
This year we want to be more mindful … of course. We want to learn new techniques for cooking and find really good flavors. We also want to make things that make us feel good.
This citrus, cilantro, celery, ginger juice is a good, healthy start to the year. For some reason, when I drink this juice my energy goes up immediately. I think my body just cries out for juices like this.
It’s a simple little booster than is easy. I don’t have to eat a huge salad to get my nutrients.
| Happy New Year 2015: Citrus, Cilantro, Celery and Ginger Juice |
- 1 orange, peeled and segmented
- 1 Granny Smith apple, cored and sliced
- 4 celery stalks
- ½ lemon, peeled
- ½ inch piece of ginger, peeled
- 10 sprigs of cilantro
- Run all ingredients through a juicer.
- Place in a serving glass.
- Drink up.
- Enjoy!
Of course, since juices don’t have much fiber, eat lots of greens throughout the day and drink lots of water to feel really good.
Balance is key for my new year’s resolution: Eat healthy, good stuff. Treat yourself once in a while, too.
