- 2 medium cucumbers, peeled and chopped
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

- 2 tablespoons fresh dill or cilantro, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1/2 to 1 cup cold water
Instructions
- Chill serving bowls: If desired, place your serving bowls or glasses in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the soup for a refreshing presentation.
- Add ingredients to blender: Place the cucumbers, avocados, Greek yogurt, fresh lime juice, garlic, herbs (dill or cilantro), olive oil, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup of cold water into a high-speed blender.
- Blend until smooth: Blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth. Add more cold water, up to 1 cup total, if needed to reach your desired consistency.
- Chill the soup: Transfer the blended soup to a container and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the soup to cool thoroughly.
- Adjust seasoning: After chilling, taste the soup and adjust the salt or pepper to your preference.
- Serve cold: Serve the soup cold, optionally garnishing with a drizzle of olive oil and fresh herbs for extra flavor and presentation.
Notes
- For a dairy-free option, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt.
- Use fresh herbs like dill for a traditional flavor or cilantro for a different twist.
- Adjust water quantity to achieve your preferred soup thickness.
- Can be prepared a day ahead and stored chilled in the refrigerator.
- If your blender is not high-powered, blend in batches or for a longer time to achieve smoothness.
