"This is a recipe by Beth Elon, who has a column every other week in our local paper. In our house it's just not Friday night dinner unless there's soup, but with the weather being so hot lately, I haven't been able to even bear the thought of sitting down to a hot steaming bowl of chicken soup, let alone cooking it on Friday. I tried this..."

"I found this recipe in Bon Apetit, but omitted the mint (personal preference) and tweaked it a bit. This would be wonderful for a summer baby or wedding shower or poolside. The feta and seasonings really sparkle, and the eggs and chives give it that extra beautiful finish. Most of the prep time is chilling time"

"This is a modified version of Ina Garten's Summer borscht that I found on foodtv.com. I have replaced whole fat sour cream and yogurt, with low fat. I also made it with 3 beets instead of 5, and prepared them in a pressure cooker. I eliminated the sugar from 1/4 cup, to 2 tablespoons. For flavor and texture, I added sauteed onion and carrots...."

"Original was from Bon Appetit. This one was adapted by Dean Ornish in his Everyday Cooking with Dean Ornish.

Tried it and it is a keeper. The flavors blend very well. The pepper gives it a nice warmth along with the tang of the cider vinegar. Added to the Zucchini base it creates a winner without a sweetish taste sometimes found in this..."

Ingredients: cider vinegar, pepper, corn...

"POSTED FOR ZAAR WORLD TOUR 5. Cooking Time is chilling time. This dish is a modern adaptation of Malaga's Ajo Blanco (white almond soup). Unlike the ajo blanco, however, this version omits the almonds within and relies on sour cream and yogurt for its unmistakable creamy texture. Almonds are reserved for a crisp garnish.
