Food - Pineapple Ginger Juice

I haven't been posting anything about food for this month because... guess what ?? I'm doing the Whole30 with my youngest sister. Day 1 was a blast, Day 10 was OK, I really need cake RIGHT now and today we are on Day 16! I never diet because I LOVE FOOD. period. I love food a lot even on the saddest of days, I might not eat at the sad moment, but believe me give me 4 hrs tops, and I'll be stuffing my mouth, apologizing to my stomach for being so hurtful.

So, with the Whole 30, you are banned advised not to eat certain types of food. It has been really difficult giving up rice, and cake. But I have seen a lot of improvement in the past 16 days. My skin is a lot brighter and healthier looking and I've learnt that there are so many things you can make with sweet potatoes. Also, plantain chips become your best friend. Since we can't eat ANY sugar, except if they are naturally found in the produce or fruits we buy, we've been making a lot of juice, and not drinking excessively. Grapefruit Juice, Pineapple Ginger Juice, and Melon Juice.


Today we will be drinking Pineapple Ginger Juice. This was so good. I loved the zing the ginger provided. It is as the grapefruit juice, relatively easy to make if you have a juicer. As I said on the last juice post, we use this  juicer. So lets get right into it.

2 pineapples, diced
ginger (based on your judgement), diced
1/4 cup of water
see the tiny ginger on the bottom right, that's all the ginger I used. 

Peel and dice pineapples (just like how the other republicans where peeling and dicing Mr. Trump at the Republican Debate yesterday) and ginger so that when you are processing them, your juicer doesn't have any problems.
Using your juicer, process the fruits.
Sieve to remove any unwanted pulp (some people like pulp, so if you are one of them, you can leave the pulp)
Pour into bottles (we got these from IKEA!!) and add water for the right consistency. 

Tada!! Feel the Zing
