Chilled Avocado & Cucumber Soup
The cool sensation of cucumber combined with the creaminess of avocado makes for a wonderfully refreshing soup. It’s full of flavor and can be served chilled or at room temperature.
Various ways to use this soup:
- It would be great as a base for a guacamole dip. Adding cucumber in with the avocado is a great way to reduce some of the fat and calories of the traditional avocado mixture without losing any flavor, especially if you like to eat a lot of it!
- Use it as a dip for veggies, chips, or as a spread on sandwiches.
- It would make a fantastic salad dressing and would be great on raw spiralized noodles, like zucchini and carrots.
There are lots of ways to use this recipe with minor changes of the water amount, use less for a thicker base or more for a thinner base.
Enjoy this soup often, it’s perfect when the warmer weather sets in, making for a light lunch, dinner or make ahead meal!
How Long Will Leftovers Keep?
Leftovers will keep for 5 – 6 days in the refrigerator, stored in a covered container.
Can You Freeze Avocado Cucumber Soup?
Yes, it freezes beautifully for up to 2 months! My favorite way to freeze this soup is in individual small containers that are freezer safe. When ready to eat, just pull it from the freezer and let it thaw in the fridge or on the counter. You can also freeze larger portions in large freezer safe ziplock bags or containers.

*Use dill or cumin. I like to change up the herb or spice when making this easy pureed soup. Cumin is a warm and heavy spice and is delicious in this soup. When I want to keep it super light, I opt of light and refreshing dill.
