The Cliff House Resort & Spa Offers Spa-Inspired Recipe

The Cliff House Resort & Spa offers a spa-inspired recipe for a healthy new year, giving carrot soup a fresh, healthy spin. 

The Cliff House, one of the premier spas in Maine, developed this recipe for spa guests and uses ingredients like pineapple and lime to turn up the heat while keeping calories down. Root vegetables give it a hearty, satisfying character. Simply toss the ingredients into a saucepan, purée and serve with crusty whole wheat bread and light salad.
