CHILLED CUCUMBER SOUP WITH AVOCADO TOAST
A chilled cucumber soup, whirled together in the blender to serve as an instant dinner, is one of the quiet rewards of midsummer. The trick to making it hearty enough is to not stint on the seasonings, especially when something as mild as cucumber is the main ingredient. Garlic, plenty of herbs, jalapeño and anchovy add plenty of flavor, while buttermilk contributes a creamy, light texture. You could serve this with nothing more than some crusty or toasted bread on the side and be satisfied, but a topping of soft avocado dressed with a little lemon juice and feta cheese fills out the meal nicely. And the muted green colors of avocado toast and cucumber soup look as cooling as they taste.

SUPERB YELLOW PEPPER SOUP
I first tasted this sunny-looking soup with yellow peppers at a luncheon hosted by a good friend. It's simple and superb when served warm with a dollop of sour cream...or you can chill it for a refreshing change of pace in summer. -Linda Nilsen, Anoka, Minnesota
