Healthy Recipes: Green goddess soup

Winter's over, but that doesn't mean you have to give up soup. This healthy soup recipe is raw, which means you can enjoy it during warmer weather. It also means that the nutrients in its ingredients are fully intact, so you're getting the full benefit of all those greens.

1 clove garlic, crushed
Pinch of cayenne
Fresh herbs like dill, thyme, and basil to taste
