My sister has become completely into juicing. About a month or so ago she bought a Juicer and has been having a blast making up all these amazing fruit and vegetable juices for her whole family to enjoy. A little spinach here, carrots, cantalope, mango, watermelon, kale, apples there.... whatever you happen to pick up at the market, give it a whirl! The skies the limit really.
I myself do not own a juicer. I do like making up smoothies and whatnot in my blender, but that is a bit different. With juicing, it separates the fibrous pulp from the juice, giving you just what is needed for a healthy, balanced, highly nutritious drink. The only thing is that then you are left with all of that beautiful, full of fiber fruit pulp. You don't want to throw it out; it is also incredibly good for you. So what to do? There are lots of recipes out there: salsas, dips, sorbets, even your own fruit leathers. Today Bonnie wanted to share with you all a recipe for Fruit Pulp Muffins. So if you happen to have a juicer or know someone who does- try these out! They taste amazing!!!
