Blender/juicer combos?

Date: June 12, 2008 08:39PM So I was thinking about ways to get some of the vitamin content from a juicer recipe and the fiber content of a blended drink.
For example you can't juice a banana (at least not in a centrifugal) but I could juice strawberries, then throw them in a blender with a banana. Maybe a mango too (which I guess could go either way, juice or blender). Any ideas? -DaveK Re: Blender/juicer combos?

I'm not sure what the question is, but my favorite thing is to Juice carrots, and eat a good portion of the Pulp while drinking the juice. There's nothing like a Carrot Pulp Cleansing. Try it. Just to eat the carrots doesn't do it for me......WY Re: Blender/juicer combos?

Date: June 12, 2008 09:37PM Well that's a thought.
But what I was getting at was this: Juice something juiceable (Let's say strawberries or mango) Dump the juice in a blender and throw in something non-juiceable, like a banana, and blend. viola - banana mango juice, or something. (and two pieces of equipment to clean up, but oh well) Alternatively throw the mango in the blender instead of the juicer. Then use strawberry juice as the liquid. Strawberry mango banana. Stuff like that. -DaveK Re: Blender/juicer combos?

Date: June 15, 2008 11:43PM So I've been experimenting and doing stuff like this
Juiced 2 or 3 apples, Then threw the apple juice in the blender with a banana and mango. Did the samme thing with 3 apples, then two bananas and 4 strawberries. So the smoothies are completely raw without having to use water or anything. And I'm trying to cut out soymilk. Maybe I haven't figured out anything new here, but it's not something I've seen discussed before. -DaveK Re: Blender/juicer combos?

Date: June 24, 2008 06:34PM Juiced 5 or 6 strawberries this morning. Threw the juice in a blender with a banana and a mango.
Smoothest smoothie I've ever had. And I didn't have to add water (ick). -DaveK Re: Blender/juicer combos?

Date: June 27, 2008 03:12AM Yeah I had just run out of greens, but that would have been a good idea.
The part I'm excited about is breaking my dependence on soy, and not having to use water. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
