This recipe comes from a book I ordered a few months ago called The Raw Food Detox Diet. It was a really interesting book and I took alot of really good information and tips from it. Although I don't think I'll be eating completely raw from now on, I have incorporated some of the recipes into my diet, one of them being this Green Lemonade. Ashley and I have been trying to drink it most mornings (it's an acquired taste I think haha) and now I actually crave it and feel so energized and good after drinking it! The boys (including Spencer) actually like it too and drink it when they can:) When we make it, we get all the ingredients from Sam's Club (so much cheaper to buy the heads of lettuce, lemons, and apples in bulk!) We just substitute the kale with more lettuce or spinach and we also don't add the ginger.
Ingredients:
1 head romaine lettuce
5-6 stalks kale (we just use another head of romaine or spinach)
1-2 apples (we used Fuji apples because they are really sweet)
1 lemon (we cut the peel off)
1-2 inches fresh ginger (optional)
Directions:
Process the vegetables in a juicer. Pour into a large glass and drink!
