Saturday morning juice!

Saturday morning's breakfast juice!

~Juicing with my power juicer express~

Apple, pear, kale, orange, carrots, cucumber, beet, ginger root, cantaloupe.

 You can tell I need to go to the store, lol ;-) Saturday & Sunday I usually just juice once so I will do a random mix of my typical breakfast juice and my typical lunch time juice, as you can see I just had a few leafs of kale left, no spinach or parsley or cilantro.

 Being as I share these with the bunny rabbit, Tom Sawyer, I blame Tom for eating a lot of the greenery lol.
Made about 38 ozs of juice and a bowl of lovely pulp for Tom Sawyer the bunny lol :) 

I always juice my beet last cause he doesn't like the beet, so I juice everything but the beet & a cucumber. Then I empty the reservoir into his tupperware I keep in the fridge for him, then juice the beet and the cucumber.
 I always do cucumber last because it is firm yet has a lot of juice in it so it is good to sort of clean out the blade of the juicer after it has juiced such a variety of other stuff and because it is so water like, none of the juice will stay in the base where the blade is, it all comes out.
