I love chilled soups on hot days, and I figured that my avocados would work perfectly with my (past prime and therefore super cheap) cucumbers in a blended chilled soup, so I came up with this recipe.
It was a hit. Very, very addicting. Everyone in my family loved it, and had many many bowls of it, and were disappointed when it was all finished. Best part of all- it was very easy to make.
Just note- the flavor tastes different when it's chilled than when it is first made. Chilling is very important.
Best thing- since this recipe is very simple and with minimal ingredients, it is good for most diets, whether gluten free, Paleo, vegan, GAPS, etc....

I'm so excited I found your site! I made this soup last night and it is a keeper!
ReplyDeleteLove the soup; got nothing but compliments from my guests. Used tomatoes from my bruschetta to garnish the soup and give it some color (for presentation). Some of my guests also asked to bring the soup out for the second course as they used the soup as a dip for lamb chops I served. Next will serve as dip as a dip as well (by using less liquid).
ReplyDeleteThank you for the recipe, it's definitely a keeper.
