This is a favorite for hot summer days and evenings. So fresh tasting and easy to make, and best of all, no cooking required.
2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 ripe avocado, coarsely chopped
1 bunch green onions (mostly white parts), chopped
1 bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1 large handful cilantro (thick stems removed), chopped
1 C. veggie broth
2 C. plain nonfat yogurt
1 C. sour cream
Salt and Pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients in a blender and puree until well blended (you may need to do this in batches, depending on the capacity of your blender). Chill several hours.
Serve in chilled soup bowls, or as soup "shooters" with Gazpacho and Vichyssoise. This is also a wonderful companion to our Shrimp Quesadillas for a summer dinner.
