I have a question, forgive me if it sounds silly ;)

Is it possible to juice veggie with a blender instead of a juicer (which I don't own). I know juicers extract the pulp and whatnot but is it possible to get that thru a blender? Thanks!

Yup you can use your blender. We all call them Green Smoothies. I make them all the time too. Plus you get the Fiber too. That is always good. So blend away. Doug in Calif.......:eek: :cool:

It took me a while to like green smoothies, but now I don't use my juicer hardly at all. If you have a cheaper blender it is better to blend the greens with filtered water first, then fruit, and then ice if you like it cold.

You can also blend fruit/veggies in your blender with a little water (blend well) and then strain through a nut milk/strainer bag and there's your juice! I just had carrot-apple-celery juice yesterday thanks to my Vitamix and strainer bag! :D
