Adventures In Juicing!

You snooze you lose!
It was a little loud and I was worried the pulp was going to get all over me, but I got out of it without a drop of beet juice on me! I juiced 2 small apples, 6 carrots, and 2 small beets to make one large glass of juice.![]()
I know there is debate about juicing in terms of cost/clean-up/missing the fiber, but I thought this was better than any other juice I have gotten from a juice bar.
Now what can I do with the pulp?!?!![]()
Where are those chickens when I need them?




This looks delicious! It’s true that some fibers are lost and perhaps a bit too sugar is absorbed by the body, but you cannot beat the load of minerals and vitamins you get with a juicer (not to mention the detox effect on your liver!)
If it’s carrots only, you might use the pulp for a cake or as one ingredient of a home-made veggie burger.
Oh that is such a good idea! I have seen beets and carrots used in burgers. I bet the apple would be good cooked up as a sweet topping for something too.
I boil off the pulp with rice – lots of fiber and flavor!
Another great idea!
