CRAVING RACLETTE? CHECK THIS HEALTHY VERSION

Give your raclette a healthy twist

You can now host a raclette party and invite friends that are on a strict calorie count, as we have found a healthy version that everyone can enjoy without feeling guilty.

The idea is to replace the usual cold meats with chopped vegetables such as mushrooms, pickles, broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, red peppers that will bring colour and variety to the table.

Don’t forget to prepare in advance a large bunch of boiled potatoes served in a large salad bowl along with enough lettuce as it usually finishes in no time.

So, this recipe just requires some grocery shopping, chopping and boiling and once everything is brought to the table, you can indulge, enjoy, chat and relax.
