Pritikin Chilled Raspberry Cucumber Soup
This Chilled Raspberry Cucumber Soup is terrific on a warm day, but we like to serve it in chilled martini classes at spa parties. So easy and attractive. The Pritikin Eating Plan recommends you eat at least 5 (and preferably many more!) servings of vegetables each day. Not only are they nutritious, you’ll just naturally eat fewer calories and shed excess weight. This recipe is a perfect pairing of both vegetables and fruit.
