How many fruits and vegetables were in your lunch today?

Look at this picture. This is our lunch for today. So many fruits and vegetables! 
How many did you get with your lunch today? 
We had the usual "mean green" juice for lunch and I made a dessert juice to go with it, which tasted...okay, not bad. Here is the dessert juice recipe:
Blueberry Beet Juice
1 beet with beet greens
1 cucumber
1 apple
4 tangerines
1 hunk of ginger root

Total fruits and veggies during lunch for Chris and I:
1 bunch of kale
1 beet and beet greens
2 stalks celery
4 apples
2 cucumbers
4 tangerines 
2 cups of blueberries
1 lemon
1 big hunk of ginger root


Here is our lunch. Total time to prep, prepare and clean was 30 minutes.

Here is a tip for new juicers: if you are using a citrus fruit, like lemon or oranges, use a vegetable peeler to get the skin off. It is much easier and faster than trying to peel the things.
