This is a recipe I found online from Alton Brown and adapted it. For instance, he recommends peeling the tomatoes and cucumbers – I kept them on. He recommends a tomato juice base, I used chicken broth instead. It came out great! It has lots of strong onion-garlic flavor, and is full of wonderful veggie … Read more
This juice gets its sweetness from a fennel bulb – and there’s only the faintest hint of licorice. If I didn’t know it was in there I probably wouldn’t even taste it. There’s also a bit of pineapple juice, and a small granny smith apple. The rest is greens! And as with all my juices, … Read more
I rarely juice greens – and the reason is that there’s not a lot of juice in them! So when you put them through a juicer, almost all of that leafy green goodness ends up in the trash bin. So instead, I juice the veggies that do produce juice, and then add the greens in … Read more
The apple and carrots give this juice its sweetness, while the ginger and radishes give it some “bite.” In addition to what’s listed, I also threw in the contents of my veggie scrap bag: the stems from kale and collards, broccoli and asparagus ends, etc – all of which I trimmed before cooking but didn’t … Read more
It’s truly amazing to me how healthy greens can hide out in a delicious fruit-tasting smoothie. This blend has a full serving of each collard greens and spinach, plus the parsley and mint. The cranberries also add a lot of nutritional benefit: they have a relatively low glycemic index; they also contain antioxidants, substances that … Read more
Okay, so Meatless Fajitas are just peppers and onions – LOL. But the flavor profile is kind of fajita-ish, and exceptionally delicious – if I do say so myself! The longer you cook the jalapeno, the more of its heat it’ll lose. So to control the heat in the dish, just vary the time you … Read more

By roasting it cut-side down, some of its sugar will drip out into the pan. 1/2 a butternut squash 1 medium sweet potato 1 medium sweet onion 2 – 3 large portabello mushrooms 32 oz … Read more
This delicious soup is quite sweet, and the coconut oil gives it a wonderful roundness. 1 Butternut Squash, peeled and chopped 3 T coconut oil 3 Bartlett pears, chopped 1 1/2 cups Onion, thinly sliced 2 1/3 cups water 30 ounces low-sodium Vegetable Broth (purchased or make your own – see recipe on our site) … Read more
WOW is this one good! I had to jot down the proportions. Cranberries are surprisingly delicious in juice – their tartness is completely balanced out by sweetness from all the other fruit. The easiest way to get ginger juice is to put a chunk of ginger through your juicer, then freeze it in ice cube … Read more
This is super-tasty as a main dish when you’re on a fruit-and-veggie fast, or as a side dish alongside pork roast, steak or chicken cutlets when you’re not. 4 medium parsnips 1 honey crisp apple 1 medium sweet potato 1/2 a small sweet onion, coarsely chopped 2 cloves garlic 1 T olive oil salt & … Read more
