MEDITERRANEAN SUMMER BREEZE COLD YOGURT SOUP
You and your friend are sitting at a quaint outdoor café on the Greek Island of Mykonos. The sun is setting and the feel of the summer breeze on your sun tanned skin is so soothing. You have just finished eating a tasty shrimp appetizer, it was mouth watering but a touch on the spicy side. A cold creamy yogurt soup would just hit the spot. Enjoy!

- .
- Notes: This soup is best when using whole creamy milk yogurt which can be found in Greek and Middle Eastern grocery stores; or use your own home make yogurt. You can also serve INDIVIDUAL CUPS instead of bowls of this soup. Simply, reduce the amount of ingredients in each cup. Finally, you can add or substitute some of the vegetables. For example, cut up strawberries (add a pinch of sugar in individual bowls), tomatoes or chopped up hard boiled eggs (Arabic style).

CHILLED CUCUMBER YOGURT SOUP
This recipe is slightly adapted from Celebrity Cruise Line's "Excite the Senses - A Culinary Journey with Celebrity Cruises" cookbook. I am a travel agent, and also write recipe reviews from cruise line's cookbooks on my company blog. I knew after tasting this one that I'd be doing it again and again! Not only is it healthy, but it also fulfilled my three E's of cooking: easy, elegant and economical. "Cook" time is minimum chilling time. I only use Greek yogurt, but feel free to use whatever you'd like.

OKROSHKA (CHILLED YOGURT SOUP)
This is an Uzbek version of a Russian soup. In Russia, the soup is made with Kvass (a national drink made with brewer's yeast and rye bread). In Uzbekistan, the soup is made with fermented mare's (horses) milk. I prefer to use a thinned plain yogurt. My husband, who is not adventurous, loves this soup in the summer and we have it often. The original recipe came from "Please to the Table - The Russian Cookbook" by Anya von Bremzen and John Welchman. I have modified it quite a bit so think I can almost, not quite, call it my own recipe. Prep time does not include chilling time.

- Zucchini slices can be fried (traditional method), grilled or baked. Each method takes a different amount of time, but whichever you choose it still won't be more than 20 minutes. Sprinkle light salt over zucchini slices. Even if I'm preparing the soup for just one, I always cook a lot more zucchini than needed for the soup. So fill the tray up. Bake at 350-375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes, flip halfway through. Note - use parchment paper or aluminum foil on the baking dish.
- Let the zucchini cool on a wide dish. If you fried the zucchini, place paper towel on the plate to absorb the extra oil.
