Morning yum....

I have been mixing flax and greens into my morning juice. For those that have been asking where I get my protein...here it is.
Today I thought I would try a beet juice. It was rather red and now so is my tongue. I am looking healthier by the minute. I added 2 carrots, 1 beet, 1 orange and half of an apple. It was pretty good and beets are a good source of calcium, iron, vitamins A and C and folic acid. You can't beat a beet. Go juice one today.

I also wanted to add that I was right about the Chinese chicken salad I ordered for dinner last night. I asked if they could substitute spinach with the romaine, leave off the chicken, Chinese noodles and dressing. She looked at me like I was crazy(and so did Rick) Some say I should have just asked for a bowl of spinach. But...that would not have been as much fun!

  1. Stacia, is that your juicer? Do you like it? I'm pondering getting one. We have another thing by Breville and love it, so I would imagine the juicer would be good- let me know!
