A delightfully fresh play on gazpacho that had the most beautiful deep green color. Very cool and refreshing on a hot day. Ingredients:
2 cups or so lettuce leaves, chopped. any variety is fine, but i love a bibb lettuce for this. |
2 cups or so spinach |
3 green onions |
1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced |
3 tablespoons parsley |
1/2 cup sour cream, plus extra for garnish |
1/2 cup mayonnaise -- use homemade if at all possible, the flavor difference will be apparent |
2 cups chicken broth |
1 -3 teaspoons chopped fresh mint, to your taste |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. The lettuce, spinach, green onions, cucumbers and parsley need be only coarsely chopped since they'll be going into a food processor or blender.
2. 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.
3. Gradually add the remaining ingredients.
4. Taste, and adjust seasoning.
5. 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!
