Chilled Cucumber Avocado Soup with Lemon and fresh Dill

July 4, 2011 By kelly / inspired edibles 20 Comments

Some days, it’s just too hot to cook… 

This no-cook chilled cucumber soup only requires a blender and a few key ingredients.  It is summer fresh and full of flavour.  It’s gorgeous colour also makes it a great choice for guests.

Chilled Cucumber Avocado Soup with Lemon and fresh Dill

  • 3 green onion, chopped
  • 2 large field cucumbers, partially peeled and roughly chopped (seeds intact)
  • 1 large avocado, peeled and chopped
  • 3 Tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • zest of one lemon
  • juice of one lemon
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup plain natural yogurt
  • 1 tsp agave nectar

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until desired consistency is achieved.  You can add additional buttermilk or yogurt as desired.

    I love the recipe, but my favorite touch is the itty bitty melon slices.

    Hi Kelly,
    Gorgeous soup perfect for hot summer days. No if it would only get hot. I’m dying to start making cold soups but hot soup if far more fitting where we live.

    This looks so deliciously refreshing! And to think I have an avocado here that desperately needs using up!

    Kelly, this looks incredible! I love that it’s no cook! My husband isn’t a cucumber guy – but he LOVES avocado, so I think this will do just fine!! Thanks!

    I’ve never had a cold soup before. This one sounds very good. And I think my little one would enjoy it too. She’s a big avocado fan. :)

    Hee-hee… sounds like a good plan – let me know how it goes and if the heat continues, who knows, she might we willing to reconsider (it is a very tasty soup)

    I love chilled soup… too bad my wife hates them or I could eat them every day throughout the summer, but that got me thinking – perhaps she’s never had a “good” one. This one looks delicious. I think I might test this one out on her next week when it’s my turn to cook :D
