 Green juices are my ultimate favorite and I don't make them often enough as I probably should. They are so refreshing and so good for you. I wanted to do some digging to research the health benefits of my recipe.

Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite 1000-Watt Juice Extractor,Brushed Stainless

The machine is I use is called the Breville 800JEXL Juice Fountain Elite. I love this machine because I can literally put all the fruits and veggies in whole and not have to chop up veggies which is time consuming. It is also very easy to clean. 

The cost of this machine is pricey, Amazon has it listed for $299. I purchased mine 8 years ago and have probably used it 500 times and it still works great! It is a great investment and you can order replacement parts such as the filter.
