Omaca-3 Pear, Spinach, Maca Smoothie Recipe

omaca-3 nutribulletI really have been enjoying my NutriBullet Pro and Virginia has been too. If you’re following you know I picked one up before Christmas in a department store. A passerby said it was great and she also said she used it every day and loves it. So we bought one.


Virginia and I have been using the NutriBullet Pro in place of juicing. This adds a fresh new dimension to our juicing/blending lifestyle and I have to say I am impressed. It’s easy to do, there are a lot of delicious simple recipes and cleanup is a breeze.


The Omaca-3 gets it’s name from maca root powder. High in energy! Maca is rich in vitamin B vitamins, C, and E. It provides plenty of calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, phosphorous and amino acids. Maca is widely used to promote sexual function of both men and women. It serves as a boost to your libido and increases endurance. At the same time it balances your hormones and increases fertility. So enjoy, I mean really enjoy, the Omaca-3!


The Omaca-3 recipe comes from the NutriBullet Pro  booklet. The booklet is found inside the box with the NutriBullet Pro. It claims to have “Life Changing Recipes”, like the Omaca-3, so we shall see.


So here’s a great recipe for you to try !

Apple Pear Fruit Juice Recipe

Do you like sweet apples mixed with delicious pears? If so, then this Apple Pear Fruit Juice is the recipe for you.


 


apple pear fruit juiceFresh Fruit: Apple Pear Fruit Juice Recipe


This is another wonderful recipe from  The Juicing Bible with a slight alteration. Even though the recipe doesn’t specify what type of apple and pear to use, I used braeburn apples and red pears. I also left out the ginger root and I list it below as optional.


I have nothing against ginger root. It has many positive nutritional benefits, but I just don’t care for it in some recipes. My taste may change as time goes on. It certainly has over the years and I may start using ginger root more often in fruit juice recipes.


This is a pleasant morning fruit juice and fruit juice is excellent for cleansing, but it does have more sugar than green drinks. I’m careful not to drink too much pure fruit juice and I’ve found that diluting it with purified water or sparkling water is a good choice. The recipe below makes more than enough for 2 people, especially if you dilute it.


Serves 2 people


  • 2 apples (braeburn)

  • 2 pears (red)

  • 1/2 inch piece of ginger root (optional)

  • 1/2 cup grapes (red)

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

UPDATE: Apple Pear Fruit Juice Recipe: Try the ginger root. It is fantastic! I use just a small piece to livin this recipe up and ginger root has so many wonderful benefits. For one, it reduces pain and inflammation, making it valuable in managing arthritis, headaches, and menstrual cramps.- 7 Health Benefits of Ginger

Zen Dragonfly | Spinach, Lettuce, Pear, Apple, Strawberry Juice

The Zen Dragonfly comes from the book The Healthy Juicer’s Bible written by Farnoosh Brock. I highly recommend this wonderful juicing book. It has many delicious recipes.


Zen Dragonfly


Do you like strawberries in your juices? If so, that’s great, because The Zen Dragonfly consists of 8-10 strawberries. I was a little hesitant to add strawberries to this green juice, but it turned out very well.


I’m always a little cautious to put anything other than apple and/or pear into my green juices, but Farnoosh knows what she’s making here.


You can just taste the strawberries and it gives it a very good flavor. I also detected the delicious taste of the Granny Smith apple.


This drink also has a beautiful green color. You can’t go wrong here. Gorgeous, Tasty and Nutritious!


 Zen Dragonfly


Makes approximately 20 ounces


  • 2-3 cups baby or regular spinach

  • A small head of Romaine lettuce ( I used 5 or 6 big leaves)

  • 1 medium pear

  • 1 medium Granny Smith apple

  • 8-10 strawberries (sometimes mine aren’t the sweetest, but I got lucky this time)

Zen Dragonfly


Update: Buy organic strawberries or grow them yourself. Strawberries are known to be one of the most highly pesticide sprayed fruits. One report found 36 types of pesticides on strawberries. Out-of-season, imported strawberries are the most risky. But organic or homegrown strawberries are healthy. They are among the fruits and vegetables ranked highest in health-promoting antioxidants.

Sweet Pear Sensation | Pear, Apple, Celery, Lemon and Ginger Juice

Wow! Here’s  a great recipe for you. The Sweet Pear Sensation  comes from The Healthy Juicer’s Bible written by Farnoosh Brock.


I love pear in my juices and this one incorporates pear nicely with apple, lemon, celery and ginger. There’s just a hint of celery flavor and ginger in this one. I use very small amounts of ginger in my recipes because I think the Omega J8004 really squeezes out the ginger remarkably well. Too much ginger can ruin a juice for me.


I hope you enjoy this very delightful juice. Try some sparkling water with this, you might be surprised.


Sweet Pear SensationSweet Pear Sensation


Makes 20 ounces


  • 2 small pears, any kind

  • 1 medium sweet apple ( I used Red Delicious)

  • 2-4 celery stalks ( I used 3)

  • 1/2 lemon ( I peel mine)

  • A small chunk of ginger

 


Update: The Health Benefits of Pears


  1. Blood pressure: Pears have anti-oxidant and anti-carcinogen glutathione which help prevent high blood pressure and stroke.

  2. Cancer prevention: The high vitamin C and copper content act as good anti-oxidants that protect cells from damages by free radicals.

  3. Cholesterol: The high content of pectin in pears make it very useful in helping to lower cholesterol levels.

    Colon health: When not juicing, eat the pear whole for its precious fiber that are highly beneficial for your colon health.

  4. Constipation: The pectin in pears is diuretic and have a mild laxative effect. Drinking pear juice regularly helps regulate bowel movements.

  5. Energy: You can get quick and natural source of energy from pear juice, due largely to its high amounts of fructose and glucose.

  6. Fever: The cooling effect in pear is excellent in relieving fever. Best way to bring a fever down quickly is by drinking a big glass of pear juice.

Apple, Beet, Pear Fruit Juice Recipe

UPDATE: The Apple, Beet, Pear Fruit Juice recipe comes from The Juicing Bible. Most of my recipes come from books I’ve purchased and some come from a FREE juice suggestion software program. I modify the recipes for my taste and you can too!


I also find recipes online and some get sent to me by fellow bloggers and followers. Whenever possible I credit the source.


apple, beet, pear fruit juiceFresh Juice: Apple, Beet, Pear Fruit Juice Recipe


As I said, this recipe (apple, beet, pear) comes from the book, The Juicing Bible. I really have enjoyed this book and use it for reference quite frequently. So if you can, I recommend you have a copy for yourself. Here’s the Apple, Beet, Pear recipe with a slight modification (remove lemon peel) of my own. Actually the book does mention to remove the lemon peel in another chapter, but I want to make it a point in this recipe. Leave as much of the pith (white stuff) as possible. As with other citrus fruit, the pith contains pectin and bioflavonoids, which help the body to absorb vitamin C. I find lemon peel too bitter for my taste, especially when juiced in the Omega J8004 Masticating Juicer.


This is a delicious recipe and I love the bit of foam on top. On this recipe anyway.


Before juicing I didn’t like fresh beets, but juicing has really expanded my taste. I love raw, fresh beet juice now.


This is a simple recipe and very enjoyable to make. Try it, you’ll like it!


Serves 2 people


  • 2 apples

  • 1 pear

  • 3 beets (small to medium, with tops)

  • 1/2 lemon (peeled)

  • 1/2 inch piece of ginger root (optional)

apple, beet, pear fruit juice


I start with the ginger root, then the lemon and after those have gone through I process the rest in my juicer. My reason to start with the ginger root and lemon is that I want to get all that I can out of it, since it’s such a tiny amount. I think juicing them first will allow the rest, as it pushes through, to capture any residual ginger root and lemon left in the auger. 


Some people like to juice the lemon last because it helps clean and freshen the juicer parts. Personal preference I suppose. As I see it there’s really no right way or wrong way when it comes to this. Experiment and enjoy.


If you have a juice recipe you’d like to share with me, please contact me. I’ll be sure to give credit where credit is due. As always, thanks for reading and happy juicing!

Sweet Pear Sensation | Pear, Apple, Celery, Lemon and Ginger Juice

Wow! Here’s  a great recipe for you. The Sweet Pear Sensation  comes from The Healthy Juicer’s Bible written by Farnoosh Brock.


I love pear in my juices and this one incorporates pear nicely with apple, lemon, celery and ginger. There’s just a hint of celery flavor and ginger in this one. I use very small amounts of ginger in my recipes because I think the Omega J8004 really squeezes out the ginger remarkably well. Too much ginger can ruin a juice for me.


I hope you enjoy this very delightful juice. Try some sparkling water with this, you might be surprised.


Sweet Pear SensationSweet Pear Sensation


Makes 20 ounces


  • 2 small pears, any kind

  • 1 medium sweet apple ( I used Red Delicious)

  • 2-4 celery stalks ( I used 3)

  • 1/2 lemon ( I peel mine)

  • A small chunk of ginger

 


Update: The Health Benefits of Pears


  1. Blood pressure: Pears have anti-oxidant and anti-carcinogen glutathione which help prevent high blood pressure and stroke.

  2. Cancer prevention: The high vitamin C and copper content act as good anti-oxidants that protect cells from damages by free radicals.

  3. Cholesterol: The high content of pectin in pears make it very useful in helping to lower cholesterol levels.

    Colon health: When not juicing, eat the pear whole for its precious fiber that are highly beneficial for your colon health.

  4. Constipation: The pectin in pears is diuretic and have a mild laxative effect. Drinking pear juice regularly helps regulate bowel movements.

  5. Energy: You can get quick and natural source of energy from pear juice, due largely to its high amounts of fructose and glucose.

  6. Fever: The cooling effect in pear is excellent in relieving fever. Best way to bring a fever down quickly is by drinking a big glass of pear juice.

Apple Pear Fruit Juice Recipe

Do you like sweet apples mixed with delicious pears? If so, then this Apple Pear Fruit Juice is the recipe for you.


 


apple pear fruit juiceFresh Fruit: Apple Pear Fruit Juice Recipe


This is another wonderful recipe from  The Juicing Bible with a slight alteration. Even though the recipe doesn’t specify what type of apple and pear to use, I used braeburn apples and red pears. I also left out the ginger root and I list it below as optional.


I have nothing against ginger root. It has many positive nutritional benefits, but I just don’t care for it in some recipes. My taste may change as time goes on. It certainly has over the years and I may start using ginger root more often in fruit juice recipes.


This is a pleasant morning fruit juice and fruit juice is excellent for cleansing, but it does have more sugar than green drinks. I’m careful not to drink too much pure fruit juice and I’ve found that diluting it with purified water or sparkling water is a good choice. The recipe below makes more than enough for 2 people, especially if you dilute it.


Serves 2 people


  • 2 apples (braeburn)

  • 2 pears (red)

  • 1/2 inch piece of ginger root (optional)

  • 1/2 cup grapes (red)

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

UPDATE: Apple Pear Fruit Juice Recipe: Try the ginger root. It is fantastic! I use just a small piece to livin this recipe up and ginger root has so many wonderful benefits. For one, it reduces pain and inflammation, making it valuable in managing arthritis, headaches, and menstrual cramps.- 7 Health Benefits of Ginger

Apple, Beet, Pear Fruit Juice Recipe

UPDATE: The Apple, Beet, Pear Fruit Juice recipe comes from The Juicing Bible. Most of my recipes come from books I’ve purchased and some come from a FREE juice suggestion software program. I modify the recipes for my taste and you can too!


I also find recipes online and some get sent to me by fellow bloggers and followers. Whenever possible I credit the source.


apple, beet, pear fruit juiceFresh Juice: Apple, Beet, Pear Fruit Juice Recipe


As I said, this recipe (apple, beet, pear) comes from the book, The Juicing Bible. I really have enjoyed this book and use it for reference quite frequently. So if you can, I recommend you have a copy for yourself. Here’s the Apple, Beet, Pear recipe with a slight modification (remove lemon peel) of my own. Actually the book does mention to remove the lemon peel in another chapter, but I want to make it a point in this recipe. Leave as much of the pith (white stuff) as possible. As with other citrus fruit, the pith contains pectin and bioflavonoids, which help the body to absorb vitamin C. I find lemon peel too bitter for my taste, especially when juiced in the Omega J8004 Masticating Juicer.


This is a delicious recipe and I love the bit of foam on top. On this recipe anyway.


Before juicing I didn’t like fresh beets, but juicing has really expanded my taste. I love raw, fresh beet juice now.


This is a simple recipe and very enjoyable to make. Try it, you’ll like it!


Serves 2 people


  • 2 apples

  • 1 pear

  • 3 beets (small to medium, with tops)

  • 1/2 lemon (peeled)

  • 1/2 inch piece of ginger root (optional)

apple, beet, pear fruit juice


I start with the ginger root, then the lemon and after those have gone through I process the rest in my juicer. My reason to start with the ginger root and lemon is that I want to get all that I can out of it, since it’s such a tiny amount. I think juicing them first will allow the rest, as it pushes through, to capture any residual ginger root and lemon left in the auger. 


Some people like to juice the lemon last because it helps clean and freshen the juicer parts. Personal preference I suppose. As I see it there’s really no right way or wrong way when it comes to this. Experiment and enjoy.

Zen Dragonfly | Spinach, Lettuce, Pear, Apple, Strawberry Juice

The Zen Dragonfly comes from the book The Healthy Juicer’s Bible written by Farnoosh Brock. I highly recommend this wonderful juicing book. It has many delicious recipes.


Zen Dragonfly


Do you like strawberries in your juices? If so, that’s great, because The Zen Dragonfly consists of 8-10 strawberries. I was a little hesitant to add strawberries to this green juice, but it turned out very well.


I’m always a little cautious to put anything other than apple and/or pear into my green juices, but Farnoosh knows what she’s making here.


You can just taste the strawberries and it gives it a very good flavor. I also detected the delicious taste of the Granny Smith apple.


This drink also has a beautiful green color. You can’t go wrong here. Gorgeous, Tasty and Nutritious!


 Zen Dragonfly


Makes approximately 20 ounces


  • 2-3 cups baby or regular spinach

  • A small head of Romaine lettuce ( I used 5 or 6 big leaves)

  • 1 medium pear

  • 1 medium Granny Smith apple

  • 8-10 strawberries (sometimes mine aren’t the sweetest, but I got lucky this time)

Zen Dragonfly


Update: Buy organic strawberries or grow them yourself. Strawberries are known to be one of the most highly pesticide sprayed fruits. One report found 36 types of pesticides on strawberries. Out-of-season, imported strawberries are the most risky. But organic or homegrown strawberries are healthy. They are among the fruits and vegetables ranked highest in health-promoting antioxidants.
