It was a challenging week. Although I have been eating healthy and exercising I still feet drained. So today I whipped up a batch of carrot ginger juice using my Nutribullet juicer. I juiced eight unpeeled and thoroughly washed carrots, two thumb sized pieces of peeled ginger root, one lemon with peel removed and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. I juiced the carrots first and set the pulp aside for carrot burgers which I’ll make later today. Then I threw in the ginger and lemon. I added the black pepper to the juiced liquid. The finished product was refreshing and really delicious. Saturday is off to a good start and, hopefully, with a bit of rest and relaxation I’ll be all set for the upcoming week.
