Chilled Cucumber Dill Soup
The coolest soup for the hottest days. Serve with grilled meat or fish and a
green salad for a simple, healthy (and delicious!) meal. This is the perfect
make-ahead soup — in fact, it tastes best if you let it sit overnight.
Serves 4
Ingredients
3 large cucumbers (about 5
1/2 cups, chopped)
1 cup plain nonfat yogurt
1/3 cup nonfat sour
cream
2 scallions (white and light green parts only), thinly sliced
2
tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
Salt
Instructions
1. Peel cucumbers, then cut in half
lengthwise and scrape out seeds. Using paper towels, blot cucumbers dry, then
coarsely chop.
2. In a blender or food processor, combine cucumber, yogurt, sour cream, scallions, lemon juice, and dill. Blend on high speed until smooth. Chill soup at least 6 hours or overnight.
3. Whisk soup to blend. Season with salt. Garnish with more dill, if desired.
