Watermelon Daikon and Cucumber Refresher

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

I don’t know about you but the first week in January can be really tough! When the alarm went off on Monday, I realized I not only had to get back in the work saddle but also get back on my normal routine which includes hitting the surf, getting myself to yoga a few times a week and (gasp) eating healthy.

I find that one of the best ways to get back on the healthy eating circuit after a long couple of weeks of holiday goodies is to get a bunch of high quality, fresh produce back in the kitchen. Away with the cookies and bring on the carrots!

If you’re looking to detox, refresh and start anew, try this amazing veggie juice blend. watermelon daikon and cucumber

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup apple juice
  • 1 watermelon daikon chopped
  • ½ carrot peeled and chopped
  • ½ cucumber peeled and chopped
  • 1 apple sliced into eighths and cored
  • ¼ cup parsley
  • ½ celery chopped
  • ¼ cup ice

Place all ingredients in your Blendtec or juicer and blend em up! Enjoy.
