Best Breakfast Green Juice
This is my favorite green juice recipe to run through my masticating juicer. Juicing these fruits and vegetables is simple and delicious every time. It tastes best on the day you prepare it, but I often make it the night before a big day and drink it first thing as an energizing breakfast (having it already prepared helps me avoid missing coffee! I'm still detoxing from coffee...)

Best basic green juice
Ingredients
- 6 leaves kale
- 6 stalks celery
- 1 cucumber medium
- 2 apples
- 1 lemon
Instructions
- Wash and chop all ingredients into pieces.
- Juice all ingredients.
- Strain if necessary.

Variations for these green juice recipes
Some of my favorite ways to adjust this recipe are to add basil or parsley.
What about fiber and pulp
Depending on the type of juicer you use, a little (or a lot) of pulp will make its way into your juice. This is good: the fiber is good for you, and helps naturally address the sugars in the juice you drink.
But you'll always have some left over that doesn't make it into your juice, of course.
Using the pulp
Your dog can have everything but the lemon. Save the lemon for last, and give the rest of the pulp to your dog before juicing the lemon. If you have too much pulp for your pup, simply throw it in the fridge for later!
To find ways to use the fiber (pulp) from the produce, see these recipes. We always recommend consuming the pulp as well, and having plenty of fiber in your diet! Subscribe to this site for pulp recipes! I'll have some alternate uses coming up soon!
Where to find a juicer
We are planning to review and detail how to use our own juicers (or their latest counterparts) on this site. In the meantime, you can find some of the juicers we have at Amazon which is where we purchased ours. (We also have a hydraulic juicer that cannot be found on Amazon).
