Favourite Juices while Fasting

[Aleesha Sattva]

I'm creating this thread for two reasons.

1) So people who are fasting and find a new wonderful juice can share

AND

2) For people who are about to do their first fast to find some combos that work! (which is bigger than most people think. It's expensive and frustrating to try combo after combo and find nothing tastes good)

So please feel free to add your fav juices or combos here. Please put exact amounts to make it easier for someone to recreate your juice.

my current favourite juices:

2 cantaloupes with skin removed (seeds left in) - cut into slices.
8 x 2" tops of mint (the new leaves and stem)

My personal fav is chocolate mint but I also love using pineapple mint, apple mint, orange mint, english mint (which is very strong) and peppermint.

When I make this juice combo I add a bit of water as it can be a bit thick.

~~~

Tomato Blend

4 tomatoes
1 stalk of celery
1 garlic clove
1 green onion
1 chunk of ginger
Once you've made your juice add: 1 tsp kelp powder, 1 tsp of cayenne, smoked sea
salt (or celtic), 1 tsp of curry.

~~~

Pineapple Juice

Remove the top and all the skin.

Juice the pineapple and add a tsp of spirulina to the juice. Mix well with a whisk and enjoy!

~~~

Apple/Cranberry

4 apples
1/2 a bag of fresh or frozen (thawed) cranberries
chunk of ginger

This one has a huge zing to it. You can also replace the cranberries with a stick of rhubarb.

One of my favorite juices is called:

Better Red Than Dead

1 beet, including top
1/2 medium size sweet potato
3 carrots

It is sweet and creamy and oh so delicious

This is my all time fav fasting green juice:

a couple large handfuls of baby spinach
3-4 stalks celery
1 apple or a few cups of green grapes (or both if you like sweet)
1-2 leaves dino kale
a chunk of cucumber if available

this is sooooo green and sooooo good.


===============================

1/2 - 1 small bag frozen cranberries (thawed) or fresh if available
2 oranges (peeled)
several cups red grapes


===============================

Watermelon and grapes ... yum


===============================

2-3 large tomatoes
2 stalks celery
small chunk of onion
1/4 beet
1/2 - 1 med cucumber
one stem broccoli
1 sweet red pepper
4-5 carrots

The onion gives this juice a nice zing ... if you like ginger, add a small piece as well.

mmmm thanks terry reminded me that:

50/50 juice of apples and cranberries with ginger is GREAT

so is:

4-5 apples and 1/2 stick rhubarb

both of these are zingers!!!

Aleesha, you were reading my mind!!!! I can't WAIT to try your tomato blend!!!!!! Thanks for this thread!!!! :)

Are all of these done with a juicer? I am assuming so but just want to make sure. These sound sooo yummy!!

[Aleesha Sattva]

with a juicer or with a blender and then strained with a nut mylk bag. either works!

i can't believe you haven't tried it yet renee... it's soooooooooo good!

One of our favorite juices around my house.... Pineapple/cucumber...
You wouldn't think they go together, but they do..

Its just...
1 pineapple
1 medium cucumber (with or without skin)

Juice them together and enjoy. You really don't taste the cucumber, but it takes away some of the "sweet" taste of pineapple (which can be a little much at times).

Enjoy,

Green Thai Curry

4 Green Pepers
3 Cucumbers
6 Sticks Celery
1 Stick Lemon Grass
2 Lemons
Water from 2 Coconuts
Curry

Before I served (slightly warm) I add 1 Tbs of Cocoanut Oil.
Ginger would be super yummy too
Green Peppers are not ripe - so I will be trying again with a colored pepper and see how it goes. Still just as good, just a bit sweeter I imagine!!

Happy juicing

[Aleesha Sattva]

Made a lovely juice combo... here's what I did:

Juiced 3 short 'long english cucumbers' and split it between the jars. (I used 8 x 500ml jars {two cup jars})

Then I juiced 3 spears of pineapple, one piece of ginger, one piece of lime and as many apples as needed to fill the jar.

I did this for each jar.

Then I added a little E3Live to each jar, closed them up and popped them in the fridge!

[Aleesha Sattva]

made a lovely apple/kiwi (equal amounts), lemon and ginger. very nice!!!

[modernmonkey]

The very first juice I tried and it astounded me how good it tasted.

Simple too.

2 apples
Handful spinach
Grated nutmeg

The taste of the spinach does not disappear but it compliments the apple so well! I recommend this for any juice newbie who wonders how they are gonna get their greens.

[GreenT]

My favorite so far and super easy is carrots/apples. Tastes similar to apple cider. You can use green or red apples, both tastes delicious.

Hey Aleesha!

I'm making your Tomato Soup today, but I don't have any Kelp Powder. I do have Dulse Granules...is that similar? Can I substitute that, or should I just omit the powder?




can you say.... YUMMMMMMMYYYYY!!!! :)
