I’ve been diggin’ trying to use less ingredients and have been enjoying how simply delicious, beautiful, cheaper and faster it is to prepare food this way. I have more juice recipes to share today using just a short list of ingredients. Depending where you live, this juices should cost around $2-$3 to make too! These are great bases for juices, meaning the ingredients you use more and if you want you can add a few more greens, some herbs and so on 🙂

S.L.C Punk!

1 cup spinach

1/2 lemon, rind removed

1/2 cucumber

Juice & Enjoy :D!

This is a traditional green juice base with protein, high water content in lemon and cucumbers, alkalizing, flushing, calcium I could keep going hahaha. Above I tried to link each item to a previous post where I discuss the health benefits. I have more information in each post, seeing as this site is my way of sharing information as I learn it 🙂

Hydrating Watermelon Slush

2 cups diced watermelon

1/2 lime, juiced

2 ounces (or more if you’d like!) coconut water, I used my favorite truly raw coconut water by Harmless Harvest ❤

4 ice cubes or more according to your personal preference

Blend & Enjoy!

I’ve noticed some people just can not stand the mouth feel of watermelon and other melons. Usually turning it into a slushy is a great way of pleasing your mind ;-)! In the links I connected these ingredients to I share the health benefits I have written about in the past. The article on coconuts for a while was the most read post here on Living Girl Living Foods!

This is a perfect drink for the long weekend, over the summer, or if you consume alcohol adding your favorite spirit 😉

Carrot Curry Dip

1 large carrot, peeled and chopped

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1-2 teaspoons curry according to your taste buds

An additional idea, add a tablespoon of flax seed oil or your favorite oil

Blend until it is at your preferred texture

This recipe is versatile you do not need a super fancy blender and if you wanted you could use a beet instead of a carrot! You can dip carrots, beets, cabbage, chard, spinach, arugula, mushrooms, celery, pepper, jicama, turnips, parsnips, avocado, pea shoots, cucumber, asparagus, apples, tomatoes whatever you have around the house 🙂 For a dressing just let this go in your blender for a little longer!

I used sprouts, celery, mushrooms and arugula since that is what I had in my fridge. I love having a dip/dressing like this around just in case I am out and about for the day, also if it’s already done it is more likely that one will actually consume it!

I hope sharing my adventures with food has been giving you all some ideas for concoctions and brews of your own ;-)! All of these recipes just took a few minutes to prepare the food. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend with great company, much laughter and of course tasty treats. Thank you for taking the time to stop by my site! Much love ❤ and raw power 😉
