Nothing beats a fresh green juice with blended avocado; Avocados are an excellent source of Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) and these fats also help us to absorb and use the fat soluble nutrients such as carotenes.

Juicy Ingredients

A big handful of kale
1/2 cucumber
2 stick of celery
2 apples
1/2 lime (peeled, with pith left on)
1/4 avocado

How to Make It

Wash / clean all the produce
Juice everything except the avocado
Remove the skin and stone from the avocado and place it in a blender. Pour over the juice and blend until smooth.

I use the Optimum 600 cold press juicer and the Optimum 9400 blender.
