Happy FRI-YAY.

With spring in the air, I’ve been drawn to green juice like crazy this week. My body is cravinggggg them. All of a sudden, I need one everyday.

This vibrant blend was made to nourish your skin and bring about that yummy glow while giving you a boost of energy and tons of beauty-loving nutrients.I’ve been drinking this Skin Loving, Super Refreshing Green Juice everyday this week since sharing it sunday on Snapchat where it turned my tongue green (follow me: glowingfridge)!!!

BUT as much as I love greens, it’s funny how I go through phases with green juice. I chatted more about this “kale kick” in mykale coconut detox saladpost, but I’m sure the warmer weather has a lot to do with eating all the kale and drinking all the green juice I can get my hands on. You may be thinking you can just go out and buy a green juice to save time and make life easier.

Sure, you could do that and sometimes I do it too. I’m not against a fresh, raw, cold-pressed juice here and there (make sure the juice you buy is ALL of those things), but there’s something about making it at home that brings about a new appreciation for fresh produce, ya know? Plus, blending it up in a high speed blender allows you to keep all the fiber and phytonutrients from the skin of the veggies and fruit, rather than stripping it away in pulp form from a juicer… which basically makes it sugar juice.

When you blend it up at home, you get to keep all that goodness and fiber in. This keeps you fuller for longer and is SO MUCH MORE nourishing than a store-bought green juice. Investing in your health and investing in a blender will change the way you look at smoothies and juices.

Because honestly, it’s all about texture.

The BlendtecSkin Loving, Super Refreshing Green Juice Recipe and Video (2)changed my life and I don’t want to constantly promote an expensive blender but until you know what a blendtec or vitamixSkin Loving, Super Refreshing Green Juice Recipe and Video (3)can do for your health, you won’t understand the investment. I use it multiple times a day. It’s SO powerful and will last you 8 years or longer. The smoothness aspect and the fact that it can turn veggies into a juice as smooth as the juice from a juice bar had me sold immediately. You’ll be sipping the smoothest of smoothies while making homemade almond butter and healthyice cream.

Don’t want to get too off topic here but having the right blender makes the world of a difference when trying to make your own creations at home. It’s as simple as having the right tools and once you have them, you’ll have no idea how you ever lived without them.

Okay, so what’s in this skin-loving green juice?!

  • curly kale
  • carrot
  • celery
  • cucumber
  • lemon
  • apple
  • turmeric
  • ginger

Fresh, simple ingredients and a perfect juice recipe for beginners and green lovers alike. Slightly sweet, SUPER refreshing and amazing for de-bloating and detoxing. You will love the thirst-quenching effects, like a breath of fresh air, I promise 🙂

I also made a video showing you how exactly how I make the recipe!! Be sure to watch it and subscribe to my youtube channel too so you can see all my new videos.

    I love green smoothies! At first I started making them for health reasons and hated the taste. With time I developed a taste for them and now can live without them! You have given an interesting combination of ingredients. Definitely got to try it!

    Great juice recipe for skin. I noticed there’s also lots of good weight loss ingredients in here, too, like turmeric, ginger, cayenne, and cucumber. I like adding the first three I mentioned to a lot of my weight loss juice recipes, and cucumber is such a good filler for low sugar volume in a green juice. I, personally, like blending some of my green drinks and I like juicing a lot of them. It’s true that you get the fiber from blending, and you made some good points about that, but juicing allows you to concentrate a pile of vegetables and fruits into a juice giving you more nutrients. I think they both offer something that the other doesn’t.

    I agree with you about the Blendtec and Vitamix both being good blender choices. Great post, Shannon! I’m going to be sharing this with my Twitter and Facebook people, and we’ve already Pinned it on our juice recipe board. 🙂

    Are you able to meal prep these for the week? If so, would you suggest throwing them in the freezer, fridge, etc?

      Hi Jessica! You could meal prep them, although I always recommend them fresh. You could make enough for the week and then leave one covered in the fridge for the next day while freezing the others – then take one out each night before and let it defrost in the fridge overnight. Hope this helps!
