    I love Meatless Monday. One reason is because it overlaps into Tuesday and sometimes Wednesday too! Whee! Leftovers. Soup is a natural for left over meals. Especially chilled summer soups like the one I prepared yesterday. This soup involves no cooking, no muss, no fuss. All you need i

    Ingredients

    • 1 large cucumber
    • 2 and 1/2 cups of plain yogurt.
    • 1/3 cup of toasted finely chopped walnuts
    • 2 Tbs chopped fresh mint
    • 2 Tbs olive, almond or walnut oil. I use walnut oil.
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1 tsp ground dry roasted cumin seeds.

    Directions

    1. Here's what you do.
    2. Peel, chop and seed 1 large cucumber
    3. Place it in a blender or food processor with 2 and 1/2 cups of plain yogurt.
    4. Blend until smooth.
    5. Pour into a bowl and toss in:
    6. 1/3 cup of toasted finely chopped walnuts
    7. 2 Tbs chopped fresh mint
    8. 2 Tbs olive, almond or walnut oil. I use walnut oil.

    12. I served it with a thin slice of cucumber floating on top and a sprig of fresh mint.
