AVOCADO-CUCUMBER SOUP
This simple but elegant soup graced the table at one of the monthly luncheons held by the Thursday Afternoon Cooking Club, an organization of Wichita, Kan., women that has been meeting since 1894. Each month, the 24 women of the club gather over their best tableware to share recipes and cooking tips. English cucumbers work well for this recipe, but cucumbers fresh from the garden are a great choice if you have them. The soup could also be blended and served chilled in small cups and passed around on a tray for a cocktail party.

CUCUMBER-AVOCADO GAZPACHO
I love this recipe when I'd like a cold soup but need a break from classic Spanish tomato-based gazpacho. Avocado is a nontraditional ingredient for gazpacho, but it makes a creamy and refreshing base when blended with almonds and cooling cucumber. I add lots of fresh herbs to brighten everything up. Give it a try and save those tomatoes for sauce!

Steps:
- Halve and pit 1 of the avocados and scoop the flesh into a blender. Add the quartered cucumbers, the basil, half of the mint, the 1/4 cup almonds, shallot, oil, lemon juice, vinegar, honey and water. Blend until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve or serve immediately (see Cook's Note).
- When ready to serve, halve, pit and peel the remaining avocado and thinly slice the flesh. Divide the soup among 4 bowls. Garnish with the cucumber rounds, sliced avocado, the remaining 2 tablespoons mint and remaining 2 tablespoons almonds.
CHILLED AVOCADO-CUCUMBER SOUP WITH CROSTINI
If you're a gazpacho fan try this, its verdant cousin, packed with refreshing cucumbers, cilantro, and scallions, plus avocados for dairy-free creaminess. Pop the ingredients in the blender, chill, and serve this cool soup with a platter of good ham, jammy eggs, blanched asparagus, and crisp crostini for DIY tartines.

Steps:
- In a blender, combine cucumbers, avocados, scallions, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and 1 cup water; blend until smooth. Season with salt and stir in up to 1/4 cup more water until consistency is like that of heavy cream. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 6 hours.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F. Arrange baguette slices on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush both sides with oil; season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add asparagus; cook until bright green and tender, 2 to 3 minutes, depending on thickness. Transfer to a plate; let cool slightly.
- Return water to a boil; gently lower in eggs with a slotted spoon and cook 7 minutes. Transfer to ice bath and let stand 5 minutes. Peel and halve eggs; season to taste.
- Ladle soup into bowls and drizzle with oil. Serve with crostini, asparagus, eggs, and ham.
COLD CUCUMBER-AVOCADO SOUP

- Add broth, sour cream and lemon juice and continue to process until smooth.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and chill for 4 to 6 hours.
- Taste for seasoning and serve in chilled bowls with garnish.
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.
