Print Recipe

A quick and refreshing no-cook cucumber avocado gazpacho that is creamy, bright, and perfect for hot summer days. Ready in under 10 minutes with simple ingredients and no stove required.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large cucumbers, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 1 large ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced
  • Juice of 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional, can substitute with dairy-free yogurt)
  • A handful of fresh cilantro or dill, chopped
  • Salt to taste (start with 1/2 teaspoon)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) cold water or vegetable broth

Instructions

  1. Prep your produce: peel and roughly chop cucumbers (about 2 cups or 300 g), peel and pit the avocado, slice it, and mince the garlic finely.
  2. In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine cucumbers, avocado, garlic, lime juice, olive oil, Greek yogurt (if using), and cold water or vegetable broth.
  3. Blend on high speed until smooth, about 1-2 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides for an even puree.
  4. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper, then pulse again to mix. Taste and adjust seasoning or add more lime juice if desired.
  5. Add chopped fresh cilantro or dill and pulse once or twice to incorporate without fully pureeing the herbs.
  6. Serve immediately chilled or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to let flavors meld. If too thick, add more water or broth; if too thin, add more avocado or yogurt.

Notes

Use ripe avocados that yield slightly to gentle pressure for best creaminess. Add lime juice gradually to prevent browning and balance acidity. Mince garlic finely to avoid overpowering flavor. Chill briefly for better flavor or serve immediately. Adjust thickness with water or broth. For dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt or omit it. Avoid freezing as avocado texture changes.
