Serve immediately.Photographer: Fred Hardy II, Food Stylist: Margaret Monroe Dickey, Prop Stylist: Phoebe HauserFrequently Asked QuestionsYou can leave the beet skins on if you prefer; just be sure to give this root vegetable a good scrub before adding to your machine.In this recipe, we call for a juicer to extract the liquid (and nutrients) from the fruits and vegetables. Juicers come in two basic forms: masticating and centrifugal.We prefer a masticating juicersince the slow-crushing mechanism of the machine works better with leafy greens like kale, but either type of juicer will work. Making juice is simply a matter of cutting up the right proportion of veggies and fruits and following the manufacturer’s directions. In this recipe, we use an orange and an apple to add sweetness and tang. Make sure your fruits and veggies are washed and peeled for the best results. Unless your fruits and veggies are very cold going into the juicer, your juice will be at room temperature when it’s ready to drink. If you prefer a colder drink, adding an ice cube can chill it down quickly.Yes manyjuice recipes can be made with a blender; it just takes a few added steps. Here’s how: Coarsely chop all ingredients. First, place the soft and/or juice ingredients in the blender and process until liquefied. Then, add the remaining ingredients; blend until liquefied. Cut two 24-inch-long pieces of cheesecloth. Completely unfold each piece and then stack the pieces on top of each other. Fold the double stack in half so you have a 4-layer stack of cloth. Line a large bowl with the cheesecloth and pour the contents of the blender into the center. Gather the edges of the cloth together in one hand and use the other hand to twist and squeeze the bundle to extract all the juice from the pulp. Wear a pair of rubber gloves if you don’t want the juice to stain your hands.EatingWell Magazine, September/October 2013

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
