I made this soup tonight for dinner and I am in love...head over heels...well you get the picture. I gobbled this soup up. I love that it is so light and fresh and delicious! Well, it is still my first day raw on my 30 day challenge and so far so good. I just have really slipped on eating raw since my last challenge was over and so I decided to do a new one to help get me back on track again. I had to go to the grocery store today for the week and my bill was quite expensive this time $80. At least that is expensive for me. One reason it was so expensive was because I bought some prepared items. For example, the farmers market I go to makes vegetable juice and so I bought five small bottles of fresh made veggie juice. I will drink it for the week and this way I don't have to do it myself. I have grown tired to juicing to be honest. I also bought some freshly made guacamole. I will sometimes do this to treat myself so I don't have to make it myself. They make it fresh and it is oh so good...Other items I purchased were: watermelon, cherries, celery, oranges, avocados, grapefruit, cucumbers, tomatoes, and peaches. Here is my recipe. I hope you get a chance to try it!
Delicious Cucumber Soup:
1 avocado
1 cucumber
3 tomatoes
1 tsp jalapeno pepper
1/8 onion
1/4 cup cilantro
1 dash of sea salt (more or less to taste)
Directions: Combine the ingredients in a vita mixer. Finally, garnish with chopped cilantro.

Thank you for the recipe. I tried making up my own cucumber soup a few days ago and it was awful.I will make yours. Can't wait for dinner!
That soup looks and sounds delicious! I can't wait for cucs and tomatoes from my garden, I will be trying this out!
Thanks I hope you both like it:-). I really did and I don't tend to be a big fan of raw soups. I will be making this again though.
I love cucumber soup especially since it's cucumber season! Today I had a soup made with cucumbers, tahini, and lemon juice, and dill. So good. I picked some more cucumbers today so I'll try your soup soon!
I'm not a big fan of raw soups either, but I love cucumbers sooooo... I'll try it but instead of cilantro I'll put some parsley! Yummm...
YUM!! Cucumber & avocado, can't go wrong with that combo! Good luck on your 30 day challenge :)
