Weight Watchers Carrot and Celery Juice recipe - 2 points

weight watchers carrot and celery juice recipe

This is the perfect pick-me-up to start your day with! Ginger is very healthy (it purifies the blood), so if you like its taste you can increase the amount used. If you don’t like ginger, you can skip it (and maybe try adding an apple to the juice).
