Ingredients
1½ medium apples, such as Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp
1½ cups butternut squash, peeled and cut into chunks
1½ cups jicama, peeled and cut into chunks
Directions
Wash all produce thoroughly under cool running water and pat dry.
Peel the butternut squash and jicama, then cut both into smaller chunks that will fit easily into your juicer's feed tube.
Core and cut the apples into smaller pieces suitable for your juicer.
Feed the butternut squash, jicama, and apple pieces through your juicer, alternating between vegetables and fruit for optimal juice extraction.
Pour the freshly extracted juice through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass, pressing gently on any pulp to maximize liquid extraction while removing excess fiber and starch.
Taste the juice and adjust the flavor balance to your preference by adding any of the produce if needed. Serve immediately over ice for maximum freshness and enjoyment.
Comments
This juice requires a juicer and serious prep time that the 15-minute claim ignores: peeling and seeding butternut squash alone takes 10–12 minutes with a sharp knife, plus juicing hard squash strains most home machines. Butternut squash and jicama are both available at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, and Kroger, so no special trip needed, but the single-serving yield and equipment demand mean this works better as an occasional weekend project than a weeknight option. The cost per serving runs $2–$2.50 at Charlotte prices, driven by butternut squash weight and the three-ingredient simplicity that leaves no margin.
