This is a fresh, cooling dish perfect as the temperatures rise and spring brings the increased availability of fresh produce. As always, use organic or fresh, clean and/ or locally grown ingredients whenever posible. Raw foods are also great sources of enzymes which support our digestive system, weight-loss and provide energy.
