Step-by-Step Instructions
To kick things off, start by washing all the fruits and vegetables thoroughly under running water. I like to give them a gentle scrub to remove any dirt, especially for those that aren’t peeled, like cucumbers. Once they’re clean, chop everything into smaller pieces that will fit into my juicer or blender easily. It makes the process smoother and quicker! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
