Broccolini Genie

Makes 1 glass

1 cup broccolini (florets and stems) ½ cucumber 4 celery ribs 1 ripe pear ½–1 lemon Juicing is simple: if it’s green, you can be certain that it’s good for you. But don’t be misled into thinking that all green juices are the same and, hence, boring. There are all kinds of combinations you can come up with to bring some excitement into them every time. Broccolini is one of those unconventional options that will also help eliminate unwanted contaminants from your body.

Juice all the ingredients and serve.

When you juice broccoli, broccolini, or broccoli rabe, make sure you use the stalks and leaves too. People are too fast at throwing away the less attractive parts of fruits and veggies, unbeknownst to the fact that these are also packed with nutrients, sometimes even more so than the beautiful pulp or florets. This family of veggies shouldn’t be juiced every single day, as they can become toxic if consumed too often.
