Instructions
In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt and vegetable broth; set aside. |
In a food processor/blender, puree diced English cucumber, chopped green onions, chopped fresh dill and chopped fresh parsley.
If you like your soup chunky, puree only half of the English cucumber and green onions; leaving the other half for the chunky bits. |
Add the blended cucumber mixture, fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, to the yogurt mixture; whisk to combine.
If you like chunky soup, you can stir in the remaining half of the peeled, diced English cucumber and chopped green onions.
Refrigerate for 1 hour.
Garnish each serving with chopped dill and croutons. |
