Beat the Heat With This Cold Soup

Today is the first day that I ever craved cold soup - specifically avocado soup. Here's my version of a recipe that I found online. Hope you love it as much as we did!

Cold Avocado Soup - Serves 2

• 1 medium avocado peeled and deseeded
• 1/2 a seedless cucumber - chopped
• 2 tbsp yogurt with any % fat
• 4 tbsp lemon juice
• a handful of mint leaves
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/4 tsp ground cumin
• salt to taste
• water if needed

Simply blend all the ingredients together in an osterizer until smooth, adding a little water if needed. I didn't find it necessary to strain the soup, but I suppose you could if you wanted a truly velvety texture. I garnished with some red chili powder and a sprig of mint. Bon appétit mes amis!
