treats - juice cleanse (day 5)

day five has become the most difficult. i was hoping to go a full seven days, but i don't think i'll make it. i'm very ready to chew. i also want to ease back into eating a regular meat diet and know i'll need a few days before i can become a carnivore again.

don't get me wrong, the juices are very tasty! i hope you enjoy them.

christmas juice
*i was inspired by holiday colors for the ingredients in this juice
the goods:
- 1 apple
- 1 cucumber
- 1 basket strawberries
- 1 bunch kale (i used 2 different kinds of kale for this juice)

christmas-colored produce
the how to:
- juice berries on low
- increase to high and add kale on top of cucumber
- finish with apple

the results:
a very tasty green juice! the strawberries really stand out among the leafy greens. delicious!

purple juice
the goods:
- 1 beet
- 1 cucumber
- 1 apple
- 1 basket strawberries

the how to:
- wash beet thoroughly and cut off ends
- juice strawberries on low
- add remaining ingredients and juice on high

the results:
a rich purple juice. the beet definitely adds a rustic flavor, but the strawberries mix very well with the beet and fool your brain into thinking it's mostly berries.
