Hey Juicers,
It’s Laura here to talk to you about adding greens in to your life! Now, Kendra and I already know that you’re well on your way to being masters of Juiceology. But, outside the juicer, we want to make sure that you’re adding in greens as much as possible to every meal. Here’s a list of some of our favorite green vegetables, and meals that we love to use them in. Don’t be afraid to add our favorite greens to your favorite meals. Remember to post them on our Facebook page or tag #ourjuiceology on Instagram!
Laura’s Favorites:
Kale:
You already know that I’m a lover of kale. I put it in all of my juices. But that’s not the only place that I use it. My friend Stephanie introduced me to this wonderful meal. It has quinoa, kale, garlic, onions, & broccoli. That’s it! It’s so filling and yummy! If you’re a meat eater, feel free to add some chicken or fish on the side too. But it’s just as yummy without it.
Endive:
SURPRISE! You’ve probably already been eating this and had no idea! Again, I use this in my juices as well, but it’s so delicious in your favorite salads. I love adding as many things to my salads as possible; baby corn, pea pods, carrots, onions, black beans, tomatoes, just to name a few! Again, try adding in some check or fish to your salads for some added volume.
Bok Choy:
This vegetable is so yummy in a stir fry. I’m obsessed with stir frys and try and add a lot of veggies to this as well. It blends right in with all the other vegetables and adds to the beautiful color. If you’re not a fan of stir fry, try just sauteing it with some onions and a bit of garlic, just as delicious.
Kendra’s Favorites:
Kale:
An O.J. favorite! I like to put it in stir fry. So easy to boost nutritional value & adds beautiful color!
Spinach:
I love to add it to my smoothies. It gives it that deep green color and it’s an awesome way to my greens in early in the day.
Broccoli:
Such a common vegetable, but pretty easy to mix it up! I love to steam broccoli and different spices to it as a great side dish. I love how crisp it gets after it’s steamed & it can really go with any meal!
All right, juiceheads. Hopefully you’re using some of these, or are open minded enough to try a new one. We’d love to see your meals with your new favorite green so send it our way!
Until next time,
