Chinese cabbage juice!

0

Usually I make my juice at the night before, ideally you should do it right before consuming, but I followed the premise, that a 10 hour juice is better than no juice at all! (I use a slow juicer!)

This juice has a really fresh flavor and gets eveb better with a lot of Chinese cabbage; this is a really complete vegetable, in only 100 gr (16 calories) contains 13% DRA calcium and 48% DRA K vitamin!

Unfortunately I didn’t remind of taking a picture of the juice itself, but… it's green! :O

For two portions the ingredients are:

1 chinese cabbage

2 cucumber

8 celery stalks

4 apple

In my juices I usually go with apples or pears, which gave me a lot of juice and are real inexpensive. I save the “good fruit” to eat solo!

Be kind, be vegan! (this weak I dare you to start at least on day with a great juice :p)

Zucchini and parsley smoothie

0

1 zucchini
80 gr red cabbage
40gr parsley
5gr mint
2 bananas
1 orange

Put everything in the food processor, and add water until it reachs the texture you want.

For me, the final product was about 2 liters, then I divided in two snacks (morning and afternoon)! If your food processor, like mine, doesn’t take that much quantity, just fill to the maximum, and then add some water directly to the bottle that you use to drink.


I know that doesn’t look great, but is really sweat and fresh! Even better, this smoothie have about 10 gr of protein, 30% DRA iron and 37% DRA calcium (data from chronometer).

It’s also full of other vitamins and nutrients, but I already know that calcium and iron are the big vegan concerns. So with only this smoothie you will get about 1/3 of your recommended daily amount for calcium and iron!


There is about 372 calories in this smoothie; I’m against counting calories, and even less in fruit and vegetables, but if you really want to decrease that value (but why? Don’t do it!) Without losing the entire nutrient just leave 1 banana outside, but I warn you, that will lose part of the sweetness and satiating power! ;)

Just don’t take the parsley, because the nutrition is there, believe it or no!t :D

Be kind, be vegan!
