This morning for breakfast we tried something different. Very different. I’m calling is Ginger ABBC+O Juice:
- 1/2 red apple
- 1 banana
- 1 beet (i used 1/2 a can of beets since I didn’t have fresh)
- 10 baby carrots
- 1 orange
- 1 handful of spinach
- 1 big leaf of lacinato kale
- 1 piece of ginger (about the size of 2 nickels stacked on top of each other
This recipe started off as something I found on reboot.com, but the taste was WAY too much for either of us, so we started throwing some extra things in to improve the taste. The result was a lovely little pink drink, but don’t let it fool you…this baby is stout! If you are not a fan of beets or ginger, this one is not for you! I am actually not a huge fan of either, although I can take them in small doses. I even used a much smaller piece of ginger than the original recipe called for because I knew neither of us liked it very much, but alas, we are both left with that gingery taste in our mouths this morning…kind of like after you eat a lot of Chinese food. Once we added the banana and orange, the flavor was still strong but bearable. If I were to repeat this recipe I would leave the ginger totally out and only add a very small amount at the end if I thought it needed it. Which I probably wouldn’t think. 🙂
