Cool Cucumber Soup

A chilled cucumber soup recipe for summer. Cooling cucumbers combine with fresh dill, onions and garlic for a smooth creamy cold cucumber soup that is vegetarian, vegan, and very refreshing.

Ingredients:

• 2 tsp vegetable oil
• 5 cucumbers, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic
• 2 onions, diced
• 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
• pepper to taste
• 1 cup soy milk

Preparation:

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat and sautee the cucumbers, garlic, and onions until onions are transparent, about 6 minutes. Add the broth and simmer until the cucumber is soft, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove the soup from the heat and transfer to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. While the mixture is still warm, stir in the dill and season with pepper.

Chill. Stir in the soy milk just before serving.
