Yep. I’ve made the best green juice ever. I’ve been drinking my Spinach Protein Shakes for months now and I still love those, but when I want something more refreshing I like juices. No, I don’t have a juicer, but I made it using my blender and I think it still came out amazing! A juicer is definitely going on my wishlist though.
The Best Green Juice Ever
Prep time: 5 minutes Cook time: 5 minutes Yield: 1 serving
- Handful spinach
- 1/2 apple
- 1 stalk celery
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1/2 banana
- 1/2 tablespoon vanilla protein powder
- splash orange juice & ice
Place all items in blender. Blend and serve!
There you have it. It’s super easy, just like most juices or smoothies. All you have to do is take the time to chop up the fruits and veggies. We don’t have the most powerful blender so I have to make sure there aren’t large chunks of food, because otherwise it won’t blend.
I was feeling a bit off last weekend, so this drink made me more energized! Although I stayed in comfy clothes for most of the weekend, I made sure to chose healthy food options. There’s nothing worse than feeling crappy, eating crappy food, and continuing to feel even worse.
If you’re looking for an easy pick me up, this is the drink for you. I don’t like drinking too much caffeine, so when I need some extra oomph I go for lots of fruits and veggies.
I recently came across this Youtube Channel, FullyRawKristina she has some great tips for consuming produce, how to store your produce, and when to tell if your produce is ripe. She’s a fully raw vegan, so she only consumes uncooked fruits, veggies, and occasionally nuts and seeds. No, I’m not choosing to be a fully raw vegan, but her videos are definitely interesting so you should go check them out!

I love my green smoothies and juices!! But I’ve been making the same ones over and over lately. Thanks for the new recipe!
No problem! I need to start making these everyday. They are soooo yummy 🙂
This looks delicious (and super healthy)! I am a little nervous about blending instead of juicing all of those ingredients, especially the celery ha! I only have a blender and because if this have never made a green smoothie besides with spinach. I will trust you though! 🙂
Surprisingly, the celery broke down pretty easily. I was nervous too! I need a juicer tho. Would be so much easier.
I’ve been really into green juices lately! Haven’t added apple yet though – will have to try this one! 🙂
Adding the apple just made it more sweet. Without it, it would probably be much more bitter.
we don’t have a juicer, i’m not sure i’d like it, i love my blender too much lol love strawberries and blueberries!!!
i love berries too, but it’s good to switch things up every once and a while! 🙂
