Cold Cucumber Soup with Yogurt
A zesty, creamy soup to shake up your weekly menu. It's a fantastic recipe — with one small catch for anyone hoping to make a good first impression on a date, since it's loaded with garlic! In every other way it's just about perfect: delicious, wholesome, quick to make, low in calories, and great if you're watching what you eat. It's also gentle on the stomach and easy to digest. I won't claim to know exactly which cuisine cold cucumber soup with yogurt belongs to, but I'd guess it's Russian at heart.

Cooking method
- Start by whipping the yogurt and sour cream together in a blender (you can swap the sour cream for an equal amount of skim milk with no trouble). Go with plain yogurt — no fruit, no added sugar; if you have a yogurt maker and can make your own, even better. Salt the mixture, then stir in the minced garlic and pepper. Stirring gently, drizzle in the vegetable oil in a thin stream. Now add the diced cucumbers (grating them works fine, too) and some chopped fresh dill. Chill it in the fridge for a little while. When it's time to serve, scatter finely chopped nuts over the soup.
