It's true. You don't usually see "healthy" and "cheesecake" in the same sentence, but leave it to Vita-Mix to find a way. Tofu and cottage cheese team up for a terrific texture without the high fat feature. Using only egg whites cuts cholesterol. The Vita-Mix machine blends the ingredients to a silky-smooth consistency. The result is low in fat and high on healthy.

Then we come to the raspberry coulis. It's red. It's delicious. And this amazingly smooth raspberry sauce is what Vita-Mix processing is all about. Only the Vita-Mix can liquefy raspberries, seeds and all, into a rich, velvety sauce. And the bonus is more than incredible taste. Raspberry seeds normally pass through the body undigested, but they are loaded with ellagic acid, noted for its potent cancer preventive properties. Vita-Mix processing releases all the valuable nutrition from this amazing little fruit, recently reclassified as a "fruitaceutical", by a team of researchers at Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center.
