Date: January 21, 2007 07:38AM Before I was just throwing anything together and came up with some disgusting combos so tonight I finally tried some recipes. So far the only thing I didn't mind were 3 carrots and an apple.
This one made me gag. Being new to garlic, I probably shouldn't have used 2 cloves. Rejuvenator * handful of parsley * 3 carrots * 2 celery stalks * 2 cloves of garlic I added an apple and a handful of grapes so I could at least get it down. #3 1 beet 1 carrot 1 celery stick 1/2 potato 1 radish I think the potato overpowered it ..actually tasted a lot of skin/dirt type taste (yes I washed and scrubbed, skin/dirt best way I can describe it) Ugh. I want to get more veggie juices in and less fruit juices or less fruit juices with hidden vegetables. I need more variety and I need to stop making myself gag.

Date: January 22, 2007 02:15AM I like to put greens in for a juice like kale, cabbage, parsley, collards, chard, or anything like that, and juice it with carrots, celery, an apple, and orange juice. I like how the apple masks the bitterness in the greens, and how the celery and carrot taste together. Re: I tried 3 juice recipies tonight and 2 were gross

Date: January 23, 2007 04:14PM So greens go or hide good with apples and carrots?
I need to get more calcium in and got to find a way to juice collards, spinach and kale without it tasting disgusting. Any suggestions? Re: I tried 3 juice recipies tonight and 2 were gross

Date: January 24, 2007 10:06PM Juicin John - Negative attitude because I tried a few juices and gagged? LOL. Are you serious? People have different taste preferences.
Thanks Taylor - I'll try the Pinapple and Kale mix. Today I tried bleinding 2 carrots, 1 apple and 1 collard leaf. That came out disgusting. But more because of the thick, chewy, foamy texture. Re: I tried 3 juice recipies tonight and 2 were gross

Since you are new to juicing take it slow on the green stuff. Carrot and apple should make up a large percentage of your juice. You don't make it clear if you are juicing or blending??? If juicing add a SMALL amount of greens to begin with Broccoli is a good choice as it can be hidden with little taste. If blending you will need to add some sort of liquid. I add greens to my juice and I can take a lot more now than when I started juicing but I wouldn't like an all green juice on the taste front.

Date: January 29, 2007 07:45AM Hi Galileo,
I do both juicing and blending. In the first post it was juices I tried and the last one that came out gross was in the blender. I thought if I could like carrots and apple juice I could like it blended and hide a collard leaf in it. lol Apparently not even though I added water. I'd just would like to get more variety in than carrots and apples. Anyone have any recipe book recommendations for noobs who can't tolerate the greens yet?

Date: January 31, 2007 04:26PM I tried juicing for a while and would like to again soon but for now I am souping in my blender. I love soup. For me I can season it more to my liking and I add some vegetables to chew which helps digestion.
Like it or not- I was noticing my nails softening and started worrying about calcium. I don't know about juicing them, but figs are one of the highest plant sources of calcium. I started eating quite a bit of them and my nails are back to normal. Re: I tried 3 juice recipies tonight and 2 were gross

Date: February 04, 2007 03:47AM My fav. is spinach, celery, and carrots. Sometimes I add a few dandelion greens but because they are bitter I only add about 4-6 leaves.
