Those Hidden Giant Cucumbers!

I always find giant cucumbers hiding under the leaves! Yes, I could feed them to the animals, if I had animals 😂. Yes, I can make Mother-in-Law’s Tongue pickles, but I can’t bring myself to eat them😂 So instead, I juice them!! Cucumber juice is so refreshing and has so many health benefits, like the ones I mention in this video! #homestead #health #cucumberjuice #garden #fun #refreshing #countrygirl #innovation #immunity #antioxidants #anticancer #healthyskin #intentionalliving

I know what you mean about those hidden cukes! I had soooo many cucumbers last year! I gave them away, ate them raw, in salads, pickled them and finally juiced them. I didnt think to strain the pulp though...lol. duh. Anyway, i still have some juice in the freezer. I didnt end up drinking much as i just didnt feel like it would be tasty straight up. But, you've inspired me to give it a go. Do you recommend pairing the juice with anything? I think when i dethaw the juice, i will then strain them! Just found your channel this morning through your Titus why i started this channel at 58. Loved that!

Hello! Thank you for watching and commenting. Yes!! Cucumber juice is fabulous. I’ve never frozen it. Please let me know how that works out when you defrost it. I’ve also never paired itv with anything because I enjoy it straight up but you can!! You can even add it to smoothies. Use it as a base water in them. Add a little mint to the fresh cucumber juice. Yummy! Please share your experiments with me. 🩷🥒

That's a lot of cucumbers! Does the flavor change when they turn yellow?

[@HeartandHomesteadwithDawn]

Lol there’s even more! No, the color doesn’t effect the flavor as much as the variety. Cucumber juice is sweet but this time it’s a little bitter and I think it’s because of the variety of one of the cucumbers.

You mentioned that you practice intermediary fasting, so I know ppl do it differently, so curious do you drink the cucumber juice when you fast?

[@HeartandHomesteadwithDawn]

Thanks for watching and commenting! I only drink water or herbal tea during my fasting time. When I break my fast, I break it with cucumber juice then about two hours later I will eat a meal. I found this satisfies me and gives me quite an energy boost!
