    Beautiful Bountiful Beet Juice

    Getting ready for the holidays? I suggest you keep it CLEAN for the next few days. By clean, I mean, cleaning out the system. 

    A few tips on how to stay clean:

    • ORGANIC dairy, produce, meat and juice.
    • Lay off the crackers and snacks in a box.
    • Lay off the soft, processed cheese. Choose raw goudas {Whole Foods has them}
    • NO NO NO soda please. Don't use the "it's DIET excuse". 
    • Eat Soup for dinner. 
    • Fruit for breakfast. 
    • Salads for snacks. 
    • Organic poached eggs instead of meat. Add avocado. 
    • Consume lots of fat and LESS carbohydrates or sugar. 
    • Goats yogurt or milk instead of regular. 
    • No cereal. Instead maybe oats. 
    • Make green smoothies or protein-rich smoothies. 
    • Sorbet or Homemade Ice cream for dessert. 
    • Avoid any fast food. 
    • Throw out your sugar. Yes, throw it out. Use organic local honey instead. 
    • Eat home cooked. 
    • Instead of rice, eat vegetables. 
    • No pizza. 
    • No cookies. Except for these, of course.  
    • No cake or pie. I don't care whose birthday it is. 
    • EAT LESS. Be hungry this week. 
    • Fill yourself up at home before going out to a restaurant. 
    • Lay off the booze. Have one glass of wine, instead of a margarita or two or three. 
    • Have meat only 3 times this week. Make broth from the leftovers. 
    • Focus on contributing a healthy side dish this year at Thanksgiving. Check out my ideas. 
    • JUICE IT UP!!!!!!! JUICE everything you have left over - beet greens, beets, carrots, garlic, ginger, lemons, limes, you name it. 

    Enjoy the Holidays. 

    Beet Juice Recipe 

    yields 1 large juice or 2 small ones

    1 bunch parsley {I used a lot of the parsley for a recipe, but had tons left over, use the STEMS}
    2 lemons
    1 large chunk ginger
    2 apples
    1 cucumber {i like to shave off some of the waxy skin}
    1 large beet

    In a juicer, NOT a blender, combine the above ingredients. If you have extra apples, juice them for your kids and store in fridge. I always add a cucumber, it's tasteless and really hydrating for them. Add a lemon to that mixture and you have natural LEMONADE! 

    Kids love this stuff, I'm tell you. So, store it in an airtight container for the week. 

    Sorry about the mess & the icky clean-up, but it's worth it. 

    note: I just HAD to share this juice with you because it was ELECTRIC pink and reminded me how insanely healthy it is for you.

      Lovely, simple suggestions. I am glad for the reminder. And I think it's awesome that your ideas are so flexible, not in any one "diet box", I really appreciate that in a foodie/ blogger/ writer and fellow mama.

      Emily! Thanks for the lovely comment. Nice to hear! I eat a certain way but I realize that other and MOST do NOT eat like me. You don't have to to be healthy. My diet is my way. Your way is your way but there is always room for improvement, if you're looking to be healthy on the inside.

      Anyways, thanks again for saying so!

      My Dad just gave me his old juicer because he just got a new one that is good for juicing greens, it looks like a car engine no less so I guess it is powerful lol. I was so giddy at finally owning my own juicer that the first thing I did was search beets on your site because I remembered this post....so excited! My Dad is also growing organic wheat grass at his house now...see we can be cool and hip in Upstate NY too! Lol Thanks again for working as hard as you do on this site...it is one of my favorites. So inspirational! 🙂

Passion fruit water is yet another youth serum. As passion fruit is full of vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, and minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and folate. These help your kidneys, nerves, muscles, and heart rhythm in big ways.
Your body uses Vitamins C to make blood vessels, cartilage, muscles, and collagen, which keeps skin looking young. It also helps your body heal, lowers inflammation, and protects your cells from damage. When you get enough vitamin C, it lowers your chances of getting colds and certain types of cancers. Vit A is great for eyes, immunity, and cells.
Note: did you know Passion Fruit is actually a berry? The biggest berry you’ll find.

    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not rea
    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not ready for change. And that’s perfectly ok. 
Making healthy choices isn’t hard work. You “have time” to choose an apple over a bag of chips. Let’s be real here; you just DON’T WANT TO.  And that alone is totally ok!!
Let’s not shame others choices or pressure another to change. If somebody is not happy where they’re at, or they are sick, or in pain, only then will they start examining their current routines and habits. Anger is a great catalysts for change. It often pushes people out if their comfort zones and into action. 
I often hear “I don’t have time to be healthy”. But what that really means is I don’t want to change or I’m afraid of change. And I’m not ready. Change is what they’re nervous about - not the amount of time it takes to chop up vegetables. 
Be kind to yourself…but be honest. 
Notice what you say you desire (weightloss or more energy) and then really examine your habits. Do you make the choices a “thin” person makes? Do you make the choices a rested high energy person needs to make? This might seem obvious but it’s actually not…so often we overlook this gap. We don’t see it and then we get mad at ourselves. Punish ourselves for “failing” over and over again. 
Once you start paying attention to your actions and habits and line them up with your goals - that’s when the magic happens. 
Yay or nay?
