I have been drinking about a quart of green smoothie a day for about a week now, and even though i love the taste, and love a lot of things about the smoothies, i dunno.. we just didn't click. I don't crave them, long for them, want them, i just make them and drink them. Not a great sign in my book.
But what i have started to long for, dream of and love is green juice! I started off straining failed smoothies, but i find myself longing for the juice itself all the time. So i've started jucing the greens instead! i figured, since i eat solid foods as well, i'm pretty sure i'm getting fiber.
What i love about green juice:
1. the texture! It's thin, cold and pure, i loove how it feels in my mouth!
2. It's not sweet! i did not enjoy savoury smoothies, and sweet smoothies still feel a bit icky. But the raw green flavour! Yumm!
3. it's so much fun milking the mylk-bag!
my goal is to get about 1 lb of greens per day, from juice, salads or smoothies. jeez, the way i feel about juice right now i think i migh juice feast in the future!
peace
