I was inspired to create this delicious, delicate soup by a chilled lettuce soup I enjoyed while visiting New York.

Ingredients

2 heads Romaine lettuce

2 cups plain low-fat yogurt

2 tbspPesto Sauce Mix

4 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp lemon juice

1 - 2 tsp honey, to taste – optional

Sea Salt (Grinder), to taste

Black Pepper (Grinder), to taste

sour cream or crème fraîche for garnish

Preparation

In a blender, working in batches, purée first 6 ingredients, adding a little water as necessary, to achieve the consistency of vichyssoise. Season to taste with Salt and Pepper.
Strain soup through a medium sieve into a bowl and chill until ready to serve.
To serve, ladle into verrines or small bowls. Garnish with sour cream, or crème fraîche, if desired!
