Green Gazpacho Recipe

Green Gazpacho

From waterlily 17 years ago

A delightfully fresh play on gazpacho that had the most beautiful deep green color. Very cool and refreshing on a hot day.

2 cups or so lettuce leaves, chopped. Any variety is fine, but I love a bibb lettuce for this. shopping list
2 cups or so spinach shopping list
3 green onions shopping list
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced shopping list
3 tablespoons parsley shopping list
1/2 cup sour cream, plus extra for garnish shopping list
1/2 cup mayonnaise -- use homemade if at all possible, the flavor difference will be apparent shopping list
2 cups chicken broth shopping list
1 -3 teaspoons chopped fresh mint, to your taste shopping list
salt and pepper to taste shopping list

The lettuce, spinach, green onions, cucumbers and parsley need be only coarsely chopped since they'll be going into a food processor or blender.
So, combine the lettuce, spinach, green onion, cucumber and parsley in a food processor with blade attached or in a blender and process to form a puree.
Gradually add the remaining ingredients.
Taste, and adjust seasoning.
Chill for at least an hour, spoon into individual serving bowls and garnish with a dollop of sour cream. A few little drizzles of chili oil is great with this, too!
