Carmen, my granddaughter, and I came up with a new juice recipe this morning. She is a toddler and cannot crunch up raw vegetables and fruit, however, with a juicer she can still consume all the nutrients. This time of year we all need a boost for our immune system, so whether you have todds at home or not, here is a great recipe for a winter reboot.
Winter Booster
3 Valencia Oranges, direct from Florida if you can get them
2 Gala Apples
2 Large Raw Carrots washed well, not peeled
2 fresh Lime Wedges, peeled
2 to 3 fresh Basil Leaves, found in grocery if you don’t live in southern climes.
Peel and segment the oranges, wash and segment the apples, wash the carrots well but do not peel, cut the limes remove the peel from the segments and thoroughly wash the basil leaves. Then juice, stir and drink. Don’t store because the water-soluble vitamins break down over time.
