Ingredients

green apple 8 oz 227 g 1 1/4 medium apple
kale 4 oz 113 g 2 cups chopped kale
celery 4 oz 113 g 2 1/2 medium stalks
pineapple 3 oz 85 g 1/2 cup chunked pineapple
lemon 0.9 oz 26 g 1/4 medium lemon
ginger 0.8 oz 23 g 2 2/3 inches ginger

Directions

  1. Cut the base off of the celery, wash and weigh the produce thoroughly.

  2. Remove the green crown from the pineapple and cut into chunks. If you have a juice press, leave the skin on both the pineapple and the lemon. If you don’t have a juice press, peel the pineapple and the lemon and juice with the rest of the produce.

  3. Place the lemon directly into the press and juice the remaining produce together.

Pro tips

  • Pineapple is a mushy fruit, so take care not to overfill the press to avoid overflow.

  • Remove the green crown but leave the skin on the pineapple if using a Goodnature juice press. It contains a high concentration of valuable nutrients.

  • When putting the produce down the hopper of the grinder, it is best to use a mix of greens and the softer fruits like pineapple. The greens grind better this way and the end result is more juice. Leave 2 or 3 chunks of apples for the very end, as apples do a good job at cleaning the grinder and pushing any bits of greens or ginger through that didn’t make it through.
