We’ll be talking more about health and healthy eating on our new Personal Development site (Today Is That Day, which is officially launching in the coming week or so).
But in the meantime… As part of our “more” raw food plan for the first part of the year, we just purchased our first juicer, a.k.a. a “juice extractor”.
For our first ever juicer we went with the Breville JE95XL Two-Speed Juice Fountain Plus. After a bunch of research, this was the best value for a first juicer: good quality, fairly low cost for a good juicer. Here’s the new juicer beast – 13,000 (yes, thirteen thousand) RPM! Not to be messed with.
If a little plastic cramps your style and clashes with the Subzero and all the stainless steel in your kitchen, you can also get the stainless steel version for an extra $50 or so: the Breville BJE510XL Ikon 900-Watt Variable-Speed Juice Extractor.
And if you have $500 absolutely positively burning a hole in your pocket, you may want to check out the “professional grade” Breville JE900 Juice Fountain Professional Juice Extractor.
Here’s a preview of the raw materials that go in, and how they end up looking on the way out…
Yum! Breakfast AND lunch.
And here’s what was left over from ALL THOSE oranges, bell peppers, tomatoes, and even kale…
In fact, we’re in a bit of a rush to head out this afternoon, but I have a serious fresh squeezed orange juice craving. Stand back, I’m firing up the juicer…
Just got this from a friend and had to share. Enjoy!
