Has anyone ever tried putting nuts in thier juice (into the juicer) to add protein and good fat to the juice?Or does that make me a nut to think that?

I don't "juice" per say, but I do have experience putting peanut butter in smoothies, and it's so delicious.

Do you really mean juicer? Or high speed blender?
I'd put nuts in a Vitamix, but not a juicer where all you'd get (I'm guessing) is fat?

I don't add nuts for protein and fat, but I add them for selenium (brazil nuts) and flavor/richness sometimes (to smoothies, not juices).

O.K nevermind...you cant put nuts in a juicer that was a dumb question...but yeah a smoothie you could...Nuts are good I though because they have certain proteins and also omega 3 fats plus other goodies..I was just wondering if anyone ever added them to their "drinks" grounded up...

Like I put ground up flax seed(meal) sprinkled over my cereal..I guess I was kinda of thinking the same principle but getting nuts grounded up in a drink..
