After a series of hiccups I experienced with my web hosting service provider. I emerge champion over the rough migration journey. Hurray! A big thanks to all my loyal readers for waiting patiently. Yes, I do have a couple of very nutritious kefir recipes to share with you, whether you are a Champion Juicer user or not. Raw food eaters will find these kefir recipes simply great. Give them a try this coming weekend.

Calcium Rich Kefir Cocktail with Champion Juicer

• 3 organic Kale leaves
• 4-5 carrots (Clean and peel. Remove green tops)
• 1 green apple (Remove skin and seeds)
• A handful of parsley
• 3/4 cup Kefir milk
• ice cubes (optional)

Extract the juice of the leafy vegetables using the Champion Juicer screen alternating with carrot strips and green apple segments. Champion Juicer is not very efficient when juicing small leafy vegetables especially wheat grass and pine leaves.

Mix kefir milk with the extracted juice and blend well.

Garden Salad Kefir Lunch Express with Champion Juicer

• 3 broccoli flowerets
• 4-5 carrots (Clean and peel. Remove green tops)
• 2 stalks celery
• 1/2 green pepper
• 1 clove garlic
• 3/4 cup Kefir milk
• ice cubes (optional)

Extract the juice of these vegetables using the Champion Juicer screen. Blend well with the Kefir milk to give yourself a full bodied raw lunch hour smoothies that is well balanced. The wide variety of vegetables provides the vital nutrients your body craves at noon. Those of you who prefer a lighter lunch will find this kefir recipe a gem. The powerful anti-oxidant found in this combination helps neutralizing free radicals too.

What’s next? Well, your guess is as good as mine, LOL. Stop guessing and come back to find out, will you?

Since my last posting, I have received requests from quite a few readers for some simpler Kefir recipe. I dug deep into my memory bank and I remember one Kefir recipe that all my girls love, before I pampered them recently with the more sophisticated Kefir recipe using Champion Juicer.

Here it is,

Apple Pie Kefir with Champion Juicer

• 3/4 cup chilled Kefir milk
• 1/4 cup apple sauce
• a squeeze of lime juice (for extra tang)
• a sprinkle of cinnamon powder (optional)

Mix well or blend all the above ingredients.

To make the apple sauce, you may use some green apples or red apples (for sweeter taste). Peel the apples and discard all seeds. Homogenize the apple segments using the Champion Juicer homogenized blank to get a nice textured raw apple sauce. Squeeze some lime juice into the apple sauce to slow down the oxidation process and of course for the extra tang. Those of you who has yet to own a Champion Juicer, you may buy the ready made apple sauce with no sugar added (it may not be raw though).

Watermelon Kefir with Champion Juicer

• 3 cups red watermelon chunks (discard the green rind but retain the white layer)
• 1/2 cup orange juice (discard peel and seeds but retain white pith)
• 2 cups chilled Kefir milk
• ice cubes (optional)
• mint leaves (for garnishing)

Extract the juice of watermelon and orange using Champion Juicer juicing screen. Blend all the ingredients well to get a foamy kefir drink that tastes very unique. You may feed some extra mint leaves into the feeding chamber of Champion Juice if you like its cooling effect in the tongue. Be creative and enjoy !

I will post some nutritious Kefir recipe later for those of you who are on the raw food diet. Do come back to grab them.

The Champion Juicer is known to be one of the most versatile juicer in the market.

When I purchased my Champion Juicer, I did a spring cleaning to my kitchen cabinet. I had to throw out my other centrifugal juicer, citrus juicer, pasta maker and grinder etc.

The Champion Juicer is so multi-tasking. Apart from extracting juice out of most type of fruits, it also extracts leafy vegetables for eg. spinach, kale, cabbage, lettuce, etc. Hard vegetables like carrots, beetroots, celery, cucumber is a breeze to Champion Juicer.

One limitation though, Champion Juicer is not the most ideal extractor for wheatgrass. If you need to juice wheatgrass, you need to get a special juicer for wheatgrass, for efficiency sake.

Champion Juicer could replace your blender to homogenize food. It produces the most yummy creamy nut butter, nut pate, apple and fruit sauces, and a wide range of homemade baby food. It can also make wonderful ice creams, sorbets, purees, salsa, muesli and so on.

Homemade pasta sauce is no longer  a dream with a simple change of an attachment.

When you put on the optional grain mill attachment, your Champion Juicer turns itself into a grain mill. You can then make your own wheat flour, corn meal, rice meal, bean flour and yes, even grinding your own fresh coffee beans. 

There are so many useful functions to Champion Juicer, no wonder it is called a Champion.

The Champion Juicer manufacturer produces a variety of models for different user groups and countries. Basically, there are household model and heavy duty commercial model.

HOUSEHOLD CHAMPION JUICER:

G5-NG-853-S

This model is for US and Canadian domestic use. Powered by a 1/3 horsepower electric motor. An improved model with more starting torque, stainless steel motor shaft with latest design of front and rear end shield, front and rear ball bearings for smoother running and cooler operation. Manufactured as per UL and CUL requirements for use in USA and Canada.

MAR-220

The Champion Juicer manufacturer do produce a special domestic model which is wired to 220 volt, 50/60 Hertz for overseas use. This model has the same 1/3 horsepower electric motor with stainless steel shaft for durability. Manufactured as per CE requirements.

COMMERCIAL CHAMPION JUICER:

G5-PG710

This commercial model is for US market only as it is wired for 110 volt. Heavy duty front and rear ball bearing installation for smoother running with maximum rotation per minute (RPM). It has an added winding capacity which increases starting torque and yet allows the motor to run cooler under heavy usage. Made with stainless steel shaft, it increases durability and performance for longer wear. This model is costing slightly more than the household unit, perhaps $20-$30 in addition.

This Champion commercial juicer can be converted to 220 volt for overseas shipment.

G5-PG710-PN

This is a variation of G5-PG710 heavy duty commercial model whereby it is specifically manufactured for the Canadian users as per the CUL standards. The Australian and New Zealand market is using this same Champion model except the juicer is adapted for 240 volt 50 Hertz via internal wiring. This model of Champion Juicer is retailing at the same price as G5-PG710 and it meets the requirements of the Australian Standards.
