Looking to introduce more fruit and veg into my diet by making fresh juices. Particularly looking for recipes that use veggies, but all fruit ideas welcome too.

One of my faves is carrot, beetroot, cucumber, apple and ginger. Delicious!

Bumping this as I bought a juicer today! MountainDweller do you just put one of each in the juicer please?

I use about a third to half of a cucumber, 2 apples, 3 large carrots, I medium beetroot and half an inch of ginger. Taste and add extra of anything if you think it needs it. This make one large glass. I peel beetroot as skin can be bitter, and also peel ginger but just wash the others. Halve the apples (no need to core them). If you want it less sweet, just use one apple.

That's great thanks can't wait to try it

I like carrot, apple, ginger and lime. Just add as many of each as you have/to taste. It works well with carrot & orange too.

Green juices with spinach/kale, celery, cucumber, apples, lime and any other green stuff you can find (adding mint is nice too).

Coffee that sounds good, I have all that. Couldn't get fresh beetroot in morrisons so can't try Mountains yet. If anyone wants a sweet juice this morning I used two golden delicious a handful of blueberries strawberries and raspberries it was lovely! Although I know I need to be have the veg in the juices, I've bought some spinach just got to brave it later!

A warning - peel citrus before juicing. I just wasted 3 oranges and a whole pineapple because the pith and skin of the oranges were the predominant flavours of the resulting juice. Bleurgh!

Carrot, Apple and mint is really lovely

Mmm I had that beetroot recipe today (substituted spinach for cucumber) and it was so tasty - my favourite yet. Couldn't find a fresh beetroot but one of those vacuum packed precooked ones worked fine.
