We're getting overwhelmed with cukes so I needed a way to use a lot of them up. This was so good, I can't wait to make it again:

2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded & cut into chunks
2 ripe avocados
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno, seeded & diced fine (adjust to your taste – I just used 1/2 a pepper but it could stand a whole one)
4 scallions, chopped
Juice and zest of one lime
Sea salt and white pepper to taste

Put all ingredients into food processor (or process in batches in a blender). Puree until smooth, adding cold water to thin as necessary (you want a soup, not a paste). Chill at least an hour. Ladle into shallow bowls, garnish w/ sprig of fresh cilantro, avocado slices or boiled/steamed shrimp. You can also add an ice cube or two prior to serving.

Variations: substitute lemon & fresh dill for the lime/cilantro/jalapeno. Or garlic and parsley.

ohhhh how exciting. My cukes are just coming on, maybe by early next week. This will be fun to try. mk

That would be wonderful for my supper club. We're hoping for the first cukes any day now.
