Cold soup for a hot day, with lefotvers.

Boil a bag of frozen sliced carrots while some taters nuke. Cut up some yellow squash and toss it in with the carrots. Cut up an orange and toss it in a blender that can grind up ice.

To that blender add all the ingredients as they come ready. A handful of curried lima beans goes well in there too, for more starchy creaminess. I cooled off the cooked taters in cold water while I did other stuff then sliced them in as well. A bit of leftover canned fruit, a good dollop of sweet chili sauce, and a good big handful of that good store-bought ice.

Whiz the full blender slowly till the ice and warm just-cooked veggies make enough liquid to blend it all smooth. Yogurt could also go well in there.

Season to taste. I'm on low salt, so I'll prolly use a dash of vinegar instead. Tomorrow this will be further blended with a box of soft tofu for a sauce to pour over cold brown rice for hot weather munch-small-amounts-all-day fare.
