Chilled Strawberry Soup

from ButterYum

makes about 7 cups

Ingredients

• • 1 1/2 pounds fresh strawberries, cleaned and diced

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 cup plain Greek Yogurt

  • 1 cup half and half

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions

• 1. Place diced strawberries in a large bowl and sprinkle with sugar; stir to coat.

  2. At this point you can proceed with the recipe right away, but I usually allow the strawberries to macerate for about an hour until they exude their juice (don't discard the juice). Put everything in a blender (juice included) and puree until smooth.

  3. Chill before serving.
