Chicken Quinoa Chili Recipe
This is one of my favorite fall and winter recipes. It's cooked in the crock pot, so super easy to prepare, and makes the house smell yummy at the end of the day when you are starving.
The main reason? Because neither you, nor I, nor most other people eat enough veggies each day.
Juicing fruits and veggies is the easiest way to add needed nutrients into your day. MOST of us do not eat near enough green stuff. Juicing allows you to intake a large amount of nutrients in a rather small package. In terms of volume, you would have to eat a lot of fruits and veggies, in one sitting, to make up for the same amount of nutrients you can drink in a single glass.
Lets be honest, todays' hectic lifestyle, makes it challenging to prepare nutritious meals regularly. With juicing, you get the most bang for your buck. The most amount of nutritious intake for the least amount of your time and day.
Juicing is known for tasting awful- but it doesn't have to be that way! I have a few tricks to help you actually enjoy drinking carrots and spinach ;-)
One of my favorite summer snacks is guacamole, actually its great year round, but when you have a last minute BBQ to attend, taking a bowl of guacamole will be a hit!
It's quick, it's easy, and you can customize as you like.
2-3 soft avocados
