My Vitamix Routine

I’ve been using Vitamix twice a day, non-stop, for the last 6 years. Below is a picture of my typical mix (one serving – 2 tall glasses)

First, I don’t use Vitamix for taste. Vitamix is a chore. I just gulp it down and move on with my life. I make one as soon as I wake up and make another one when I come home from work (before dinner).

It takes little time to make Vitamix juice. I cannot think of any faster way to eat. So, in part, I do this because I am lazy.

I put some ice and water to start.

I put:

  • Flax seeds (of Chia seeds) – About 1 TB spoon.
  • Celery – 3 or less (depends on how thick)
  • 1/2 apple – normal size
  • some carrots
  • Spinach to fill the container to top (or green mix)
  • Ginger to taste (when I feel like it)
  • Lemon to taste (when I feel like it)

There is no rule. I may buy random vegetables whenever I see them on sale.
