Getting the other kid involved :D

He loves to help. But like my other child, no interest in drinking it :(

What to do with juicing remains?

With the amount of juicing we've done comes plenty of the aftermath of dried vegetable (pulp?  remains?). What can i possibly do with this stuff?

1.  Eat it.
Yes, after juicing apples, carrots, and some greens, it was actually pretty good.  The mixture of remains tasted like an diced/minced apple salad.  I ate quite a bit of it until I just could not anymore.

2.  Throw it away.  Why not, right?  The vegetable has served its purpose.  I got what I want. Now away with it!

3.  Use it.  I thought of this.... and my first thought of use was composting but composting is not one of the things we can do living here in our tiny place.  And even if it were, then I would still have to find a way to get rid of it, only this time, it's in a different form.

4.  Sell it.  If someone posted for sale dirt on ebay and someone bought it, there must be a market for organic fruits and vegetables after it's been through a juicer, right?

5.  Sell it for free and have someone else use it.  This would be the way to go and be a win win win for everyone involved - for me, for someone else, and for the veggies.

So.... I figured #5 was the best option and posted it on a local board and within 24 hours someone responded to it.   Turns out she is only a few minutes from me and unlike me, has a use for my remains as she composts and grows her own food.  With this, she says her worms will be very happy!

Turns out, I'm not the only veggie-remains philanthropist out there.  Someone else who juices 14 cups of juice a day give her their remains. So there are others out there like me =)  Are you one of them?  Or are you more like the receiver looking for people like us to feed your crops some good stuff?  There should be an easier way to connect us juicers to composters, no?

What do you think I should do with all the pulp remains?  I thought about carrot cake with all the carrots I juice, but I really am not in the baking mood, especially with the sugar I am trying to stay away from.  Anything else?

Juicing Carrots and Celery

From beginning to the end. As you can see, it will lock up if the veggies are too hard or big but with a press of the reverse button, problem is solved.  Annoying yes, but the thing works, slow rpm keeps it from getting hot killing of the good stuff and prevents lots of foam.

The juice tasted great =)

Just as pictured above but due to bitterness, I added 3 small oranges. It neutralized the bitterness and made the juice taste really well.
