Servings: 2
Serving Size: 1+ cups
Volume: 2 ½ cups
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 10 minutes
1 cup honeydew melon, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 cup cantaloupe, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 cup seedless watermelon, diced
1/3 cup water, added gradually
2 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
¼ teaspoon grated lemon zest
Fresh mint sprigs for garnish
Place all the ingredients except the water into a food processor or blender. Puree until smooth. Adjust the thickness with more or less water. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Pour the soup into chilled soup bowls and garnish with mint sprigs.
Alternative Preparation Method #1: Instead of honeydew, cantaloupe, and watermelon, substitute 3 cups of peeled, seeded, and sliced peaches, apricots, or nectarines. Substitute ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon for the lemon zest. Garnish each serving with 5 fresh blueberries.
Alternative Preparation Method #2: Substitute 3 cups of sliced kiwis or hulled and capped fresh strawberries for honeydew, cantaloupe, and watermelon. Garnish each serving with a fresh mint sprig.
