Chilled Cucumber Soup with Greek Yogurt
It’s a cool and refreshing light lunch on a hot summer day.
I made this cold cucumber soup with yogurt so that it has a bit of a tang to it. Plain yogurt is rather blah tasting to me and I much prefer Greek yogurt when I have it.
Organic is the way to go, of course to avoid rBGH and any other nastiness that might be in the milk it was made with. I try to use fresh herbs from my herb garden whenever I can.
It’s really easy to grow your own with an herb garden kit.
How to make a cucumber soup
This blended soup recipe couldn’t be easier. You need to blend the items in the blender, chill, and serve.
Can I freeze cold cucumber soup?
Yes, you can freeze this for up to three months. Put it back in the blender after defrosting to avoid separation.
Is it safe to freeze soup in Ziploc bags?
Yes, this is fine. It’s a great way to save space in the freezer. Just be sure that the lock is tightly closed so that you don’t have any messes in the freezer.
What kind of cucumbers should I use?
I use standard garden cucumbers because that’s what I had. You can also make this with English cucumbers.
What is your favorite way to use up all those cucumbers?
