Strawberry Orange Cucumber Juice
Welcome to Eat Your Fruits and Vegetables Week!
I don’t know about you, but lately I’ve been feeling the urge to clean, throw out, and start with a clean slate. My entire life seems out of whack lately, nutrition being part of that.
After rounding up a whole bunch of fruits and vegetables, I decided to create a juice recipe that had strawberry, orange and cucumber. The carrots, grapes and spring salad mix were also looking good, so I added those in as well. I juiced it on up and hoped for the best.
The result was incredible. This is a seriously delicious juice. My kids were giving me the puppy dog eyes, wanting to try it, so I poured them a drink and waited to see their reaction.
Strawberry, Orange & Cucumber Juice

1 large cucumber, peeled and de-seeded
3-4 strawberries, tops removed

handful of greens (I used a spring mix, you can use whatever you like)
1. Juice all ingredients and serve.

How yummy and refreshing.
I've heard people putting cucumbers in their juice. I recently tried cucumber water and wasn't a fan. But I imagine with all the other fruits this is amazing. Going to give it a try….
