Once you have bought your first juicer you are ready to start feeding your body a concentrated source of nutrients and minerals. But if you are not a regular fruit and vegetable person, figuring out which juicer recipe to try first can be a small stumbling block. There is a simple way to figure this out, try something- anything at all- and your palate or digestive system will tell you what your body likes and what is too much at the moment.

To find juicer recipes, there are a lot of books written on the subject as well as free online resources. Just do a search and you will find more recipes than you can wrap your head around. Pick out a few recipes that are simple and use common ingredients that you are familiar with.

If you would just think about the fruits and vegetables you already like eating as solids, then you have a foundation to build upon. Just use recipes that are simple combination’s of some of your favorite fruits and vegetables and expand from there.

Fruit juice can be easy because the sugar makes it delicious for even the most spoiled palates. But others, mostly vegetables, may take a bit of getting use to the taste. When starting out for the first time, it is a good idea to take it easy and experiment with ingredients you are most familiar with.

Carrots make up the base of most vegetable juicing recipes and go great with most greens because they are considered among the sweet vegetables to contrast the other vegetables taste. Juice carrot, celery, beetroot, and cucumber together for a delicious and nutritious treat.

There are some juicer recipes that are neither fruit juices nor vegetables juices, but a combination of both. One such recipes calls for carrots and oranges to be juiced in combination with tomato and apples. These fruits and vegetables create the perfect complement to each others flavors. It uses common ingredients so there are no strange tastes but a blend to get you used to other vegetables tastes you will experience in the future.

The important thing about juicing, or just eating in general for that matter, is variety. Mix up the ingredients each time and try new juicer recipes. Expand this practice to your solid food world as well and try foods you never tried before. This helps you to digest a variety of nutrients that you may never know you were deprived of.
