Cold Blueberry "soup"

Total Time: 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 1 pint approx. 12 oz blueberries
  • 1/2 honeydew melon
  • 1 cup nonfat yogurt (plain or vanilla, i use plain to keep it lower in sugar)
  • 1 cup orange juice (or orange juice blend, such as orange-mango)
  • 1/2 tablespoon vanilla (if using plain yogurt)
  • 2 teaspoons ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Recipe

  • 1 cut honeydew into small chunks that your blender or food processor can handle.
  • 2 place all ingredients in a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender) and puree until the only solids that remain are blueberry skins.
  • 3 strain mixture using a mesh strainer or similar device. i generally strain the entire batch twice to get rid of the majority of the blueberry skin pieces.
  • 4 refrigerate for at least one hour before serving; i like to chill it overnight.
  • 5 serve "plain" as is, with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, and/or garnish with a few whole blueberries.
  • 6 enjoy!
