Daily Greens Juice

March 15, 2018 by Gina +

There are infinite combos for juice and truth be told I rarely stick to a ‘recipe’.  For me, it’s mostly what I have on hand, my go-to’s.  Usually cucumber, celery, greens, lemon, and sometimes green apple, ginger, or turmeric.  This ‘Daily Greens’ juice is one that is a regular though.  It’s usually made at the end of the week and incorporates the greens what I have left.  I always have lettuce, celery, cilantro, and parsley on my list, so often I purchase just a little more for a juice.

[amd-zlrecipe-recipe:33]

So here’s the goods on this juice:

  • Lettuce, which isn’t too common in juice offers loads of benefits but has a mild taste making it great for juice.  It contains phosphorus, great for teeth and bones and Vitamin A which contains antioxidants and helps fight free radicals (what causes ruckus in our bodies)
  • Celery.  A super powerhouse for juice.  Some of the benefits include helping balance the body’s PH, is a natural diuretic to keep regular, and is cooling while fighting inflammation.  Celery also contains electrolytes which which helps keep the body hydrated.
  • Parsley.  Contains chlorophyll, iron, and other minerals.  Helps freshen breath!  Also helps remove particles from urinary tract, which is awesome for those prone to UTI’s.
  • Cilantro.  Helps pull and rid the body of heavy metal toxins.  rich in vitamins, minerals and is a total immune booster.
  • Green Apple.  Green apples are lower in sugar than most other apples, making it great for juicing.  They are also loaded with antioxidants which helps protect the body from environmental stress.

I cut a hole straight into savory Hawaiian rolls and dropped a protein-packed meatball right in —  meatballs made extra tender (and boosted with protein) thanks to a little cottage cheese blended into the mix. Load with marinara, mozzarella, bake until bubbly, and pull apart to serve.

Instead of stacking a fried egg onto a bagel, you Instead of stacking a fried egg onto a bagel, you cook the egg thin in the pan and let the bagel halves press right into it — no sliding eggs, no mess. 

Lightly toast the bagel. Whisk the eggs with a little salt and pour into a nonstick pan, spreading it thin. When the egg is almost cooked through, place the two bagel halves on top, pressing gently — this holds the egg in place and keeps it from sliding out. Flip the pan so the bagel side is down and the egg side is up onto a plate. Add your toppings, fold any extra egg over the top, and close the sandwich.

Use a low carb or regular bagel, both work great. I love bagels from @westernbagel

This Harvest Chicken Salad is one of my favorite w This Harvest Chicken Salad is one of my favorite ways to switch up lunch this time of year. Sweet apple, crunchy celery, and a lightened-up dressing come together for something that’s fresh, filling, and way better than the usual mayo-heavy version.

Ingredients:
2 cups cooked chicken breast, finely shredded
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 small apple, finely chopped
1/4 dried cranberry 
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 
salt and pepper to taste
Optional 1/4 cup chopped walnuts for crunch.

Instructions:
Finely shred or mash the cooked chicken breast to your preferred texture. In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, light mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice, mixing until smooth. Add the chicken, apple, celery, red onion, and parsley, and stir until everything is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper, and mix in the walnuts if using. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes so the flavors meld, then serve chilled on lettuce, in a wrap, or with crackers.
