Hi. I only have a good blender to make smoothies, etc in. I would like to include veggies in my drinks however, so go I need to get a juicer? If so does anyone have a favorite type/brand? I would prefer it not to take a long time to clean. (Laziness!) Any ideas? Thanks.

I put veggies in my smoothies and blend as well.

But for a juicer, I have this one. It is easy to use and doesn't take up much space. Is super fast and I've found the pulp to be really dry which means it is working well. But cleaning can take a little bit since the entire fountain comes apart and has about 3 parts to clean. I bought it on sale though, and was a good deal. Been using for a couple years. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000MDHH06/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=mommymoments-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000MDHH06

Sam, I am using the same juicer that Vegmom mentioned :) Breville juicer is great!! The only trade-off is that it doesn't hold much juice (only one serving...) A bigger one is much better; it can hold 1 Liter + of juice for many servings! I just bought this one today for an upgrade. http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B000QBFFU8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

We use a Vitamix blender and have no trouble adding veggies to smoothies without needing to purchase a juicer at this time.
