This is a delicious orange, cucumber, and carrot juice my husband and I make for breakfast or after-meal dessert when guests are over. It's not only delicious but will perk up any bad day with a boost of vitamins and nutrients that you may otherwise skip out on. I hope you try it, and enjoy!

I tasted these smoky grilled peppers at a summer party, and they were delicious, so I had to share my friend's recipe. Use as many colors of bell pepper as you like. We add some sliced jalapeño for heat.
