Being Well Nourished: Savory Green Juice

Savory Green Juice

We have fallen in love with our new Omega juicer. What a phenomenal way to enjoy the anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of fruits and vegetables! This recipe comes from Williams-Sonoma and don't let the green color scare you. The taste is dominated by apple and carrot with the essence of lemon and ginger.

2 bunches of kale, stemmed
5 granny smith apples, cored (or use 3 apples and 2 celery stalks)
5 carrots
1 inch piece fresh ginger
Juice of 1 lemon

Juice the ingredients, serve and enjoy immediately! If you want to make some for later, keep it chilled and try to drink within a couple of hours or oxidation can lead to loss of nutrients.

bummed - I was hoping this would be a savory vs. sweet green juice :(

Being well nourished is fundamentally one of the most important gifts we can give ourselves and our loved ones. This blog was inspired by our love of all things food and an ever-growing collection of recipes. Our focus is on whole, minimally processed foods eaten in season, and organic/sustainable choices that positively impact our health and the planet.

We intentionally purchase only food that has not been modified genetically or that has been treated with pesticides or hormones. Being surrounded by an abundant bounty in the Pacific Northwest, we are fortunate to have a large local fresh food supply. It makes being well nourished easily attainable!

Our goal for creating a blog was to personally track our most favorite recipes from a collection of over 100 cookbooks. Since we often get requests for recipes, we thought a blog would also be a great repository for sharing with family and friends. Plus it helps us keep track in a more organized fashion too! You can search by recipes via their name on the list below or by category. Also, we've provided some of our favorite links.

Cheers!
