The recipes:

Totally Green
(yields 2 juices)

1 large handful of  Swiss chard leaves
1/2 lime, with the skin on
1/2 avocado
handful of ice cubes

Juice all the ingredients except the avocado and the ice cubes. Pour the juice in a blender and blend with the avocado and the ice.

Pear, Parsley and Basil
(yields 2 juices)

3 small apples
1 pear
1cm piece ginger
1cm slice lemon, with the skin on
1/2 medium courgette
1/4  cucumber
5 cm stick celery
2 sprigs parsley
2 sprigs basil
1/2 avocado
handful of ice cubes

Juice all the ingredients except the avocado and the ice cubes. Pour the juice in a blender and blend with the avocado and the ice.

I'm happy to answer another question today: Do you peel the fruit, the beetroot, the ginger etc? Do you cut out the apple core?
















I try to use everything with root and branch!
I usually wash the fruit and cut it in pieces as seen in the picture. Even the lemon.  Exceptions are pineapple, lime, orange, melon and avocado. As for the lime and the orange I try to let the pith on them, because the pith contains a lot of nutrients. I clean the beetroots and the carrots with a vegetable brush.
I juice apples and pears with the core, herbs with the stems.
