Carrot Kale Apple Juice with Parsley
This Carrot Kale Apple Juice with Parsley is an incredibly satisfying, refreshing and nutritious juice. It is a great source of vitamin A, C and iron. It comes together quickly using a juicer and makes for a great morning drink.
We've been a long time juicer. We love our fennel juice, our strawberry beet juice, our watermelon cucumber juice and any juices with parsley in them, especially this one.
Actually, our favorite thing to do lately is using parsley for juicing. It adds a freshness to your juice that is almost too good to be true. And don’t worry, it doesn’t taste like grass or anything. It just tastes very clean, and incredibly refreshing.
