When the summer heat wave hits, I start to think about recipes that don't require the oven or stove top. Chilled, blended summer soups can be really flavorful, are easy to make and only require a few fresh seasonal ingredients. I like to use an immersion blender to put them together but an old-fashioned blender works just as well.

All these healthy, fast soups can be made hours in ahead and tweaked to your own taste. For a picnic, use disposable paper drinking cups. Or for a more elegant presentation, serve them in chilled shot glasses or espresso cups passed on a little tray. If you're headed to the beach, pour the soups into a thermos and pack it in your beach bag.

Strawberry Gazpacho for your Valentine

When you think of Gazpacho, you probably think of hot summer days and refreshing cold soup. Unfortunately the weather where I am isn't cooperating with that theory, so let's just imagine that it is Valentine's Day with a hot fireplace instead. This soup is extremely versatile and can be served at various times throughout the day. It would be perfect for breakfast, lunch, or as a starting course for dinner. You can even use it as a dessert, adding a touch of ice cream for decoration. Personally I like to serve it with a few cinnamon sugar bread sticks, just to add a little more substance to an otherwise liquid meal.

It makes a great option for Valentine's Day because of the color and the obvious health benefits, while tasting as sweet and decadent as any dessert you could serve up. For full recipe and directions, click on the link below.

Food Porn: Vichyssoise

A poached prawn is not exactly a traditional component of vichyssoise. The thick and creamy chilled leek and potato soup is almost always simply garnished with a sprinkle of chives, but Jocelyn at Kuidaore, wanted to accent her version of vichyssoise with the prawn and a few drops of prawn oil. The fishy flavor stands out beautifully against the mild soup, just as the contrasting color of the prawn does, and transforms a good dish to a great one for seafood fans. The soup is velvety and smooth thanks to a large amount of butter and cream, but there are lighter versions available that preserve the flavors of the dish while saving a few calories. No matter which version you choose to make, the soup is a wonderful addition to your recipe file and a nice change of pace from gazpacho when you want a cold soup in summer.
