| From Left: Basil (a ton from my yard), celery, one cucumber, one zucchini, four apples (this was basically a double batch of Mean Green), 16 LARGE leaves of swiss chard, and up top, 6 cups of baby spinach. Not pictured: one lemon. |
Today I made a gigantic juice of just a bunch of stuff I threw together. Spinach, kale, basil and other small leafy greens tend to give me a lot of trouble because it's a bit difficult getting them to stay in the shredder part of the juicer long enough to get juiced--they fly out into the pulp bin under the centrifugal force.

However, TODAY, I was using swiss chard (some really lovely swiss chard) and I discovered that I could lay one of the large leaves out, lay spinach and basil on top, and then wrap the swiss chard leaf around the spinach and basil in a tight wad that fed into the chute nicely.
