Recipe: A Glass of Salsa Juice

This juice has kick – the jalapeño adds fire, yet doesn’t leave you with too much heat. A glass of salsa juice is fresh and tasty – try it.

Ingredients:

3 roma tomatoes
1 jalapeño
1/4 of a white onion
1/4 of a bunch of cilantro
1 lime

What do all of those ingredients mean?

Tomatoes are wonderful antioxidants…they contain lycopene which maintains both your mental and physical function…and, my favourite, tomatoes relax you after a stressful day. Have a glass of juice, not wine! haha… The jalapeño is full of vitamin A and capsaicin, which is a natural painkiller. The onion, also an antioxidant! The onion also fights cancer and stimulates digestion, as does the cilantro. The green herb is also a good source of chlorophyl – a strong agent in detoxification and fighting cancer. The lime…it provides alkalinity and keeps your PH in balance and your vitamin C way, way up.

Throw everything in the juicer – tomatoes last because they’re full of the most water…they will wash everything though the juicer.

Pour a glass of salsa juice.

Drink!
