In our July/August issue, we debunked some of the trendiest health myths out there. One of those myths involved the oh-so-popular (yet oh-so-controversial) juice cleanse. If you recall, our experts advised us to steer clear of all-out cleanses, opting to drink juice as a supplement—with breakfast, as a snack, etc.—instead.

If you’re skeptical about juices involving veggies as well as fruits (or if you’re even down-right scared of them), look no further than Pennsylvania Ballet dancer Holly Fusco’s favorite juice recipe, The Yellow Delicious.

To make it, combine the following ingredients in a juicer:

  • One yellow tomato
  • Half of a peeled cucumber
  • One cup of chopped pineapple
  • Half of a lemon (rind removed)
  • A tablespoon sized chunk of ginger
  • Three stalks of celery
  • One orange (rind removed)

Happy juicing!
