Cool Soups


A hot day call for cold soup.  
Make it portable by storing in a mason jar.  Great for a picnic or party.

Cucumber soup with yogurt and dill.
See recipe below.

Carrot soup with lots of fresh dill.  Recipe found here, and then add fresh dill.

Watermelon Gazpacho.  Find the recipe here

Cucumber Soup
3 cucumbers, peeled, seeded and roughly chopped
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 small clove garlic
5 cups plain yogurt (I used Greek 2%)
1 teaspoon oil
4 teaspoons chopped dill
1 teaspoon salt
dash pepper

Put vegetables in a food processor blender with 2 cups yogurt and remaining ingredients.  Process until all ingredients and the sames size but not smooth.  Add remaining yogurt and process until just incorporated.  Chill and then serve with more fresh dill on top.  
Serves 6.
