Glowing Pumpkin Juice
And our pumpkin obsession CONTINUES! This time though, we're still recovering from our slight overindulgence in our super sweet layered Pumpkin Chocolate Fudge. This beautiful, saffron colored juice did just the trick. Packed with citrus and seasonal pumpkin, this juice will brighten your day...and your skin! The beta carotene in the pumpkin is a powerful antioxidant crucial for normal skin cell development healthy skin tone. The Vitamin C found in the oranges, apples, and lemons not only builds a strong immune system and helps blemishes heal properly but also helps firm & tone skin, prevent free-radical damage, protects skin cells, and prevents signs of aging (like wrinkles!). And the mango? Delicious, yes, but also packed with beta carotene and Vitamin A- giving you that extra soft, smooth skin you CRAVE in this cool fall weather. Plus, what could be easier than cutting up your fruits and letting the juicer do all the work? Except when it comes to washing the damn thing, but that's a whole different story...so let's drink!
INGREDIENTS:
1 small pumpkin, skinned, deseeded, and cubed (about 2 cups) 4 oranges, peeled 2 apples, cored 2 lemons, peeled 1 mango, peeled & pitted DIRECTIONS: Prep all fruits by washing, peeling (if necessary), and cutting them. Throw into your juicer a few pieces at a time, being sure to juice the stubborn pumpkin on 'HIGH'. Juice completely into a large container. Serve in two smaller containers, or refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days. Enjoy!

This looks really good. I don't have a juicer, but I have a Vitamix. Could I use can pumpkin in place of the fresh pumpkin? By the way, I have been making all of your soups. We love the Moroccan Chickpea, and we made the tomato soup two nights ago. Delicious! And we don't like tomato soup. The Potato and Leek soup is on the menu tonight. Thank you for all of you delicious recipes. They hit the spot!

Hi Dawn! The pumpkin in a can won't go through the juicer well, but you could add a little canned pumpkin to the finished product! Enjoy!

Love the juice and the bottles, too. Do you mind sharing where you got them or just the name? Thanks!

Hi Molla! Of course! I think we got these ones at Cost Plus World Market, but we also have a similar set from the dollar section at Target :)
