Green Morning Boost

For this drink, you will need a juicer. The search for a juicer took me several months as I tried so many which were leaking, which could not handle more than one juice without needing cleaning, etc… I finally settled on a Breville Juicer (you can put a whole apple directly in the feeder!).

The Morning Green Boost will bring plenty of much-needed nutrients and phytochemicals.
You will get your daily Vitamin C recommended by the FDA thanks to the apple and celery, you will get calcium from the collards leaves and vitamin A from the carrot.
In addition to this impressive list, celery also brings 15% of your daily potassium needs.

Ingredients:

1 apple
1 collards leaf
1 celery stem
4 strawberries
1 carrot
1 fresh ginger slice

Directions:

Rinse and pat dry all fruits/veggies.
No need to peel (except ginger root), you can put your fruits/veggies directly in the juicer.
Juice and drink right away as antioxidants lose their potency as time passes.

Variations:
