Strawberry soup is a tasty summer soup made with fresh strawberries, vanilla yogurt, sour cream, and fresh lime juice blended to make an easy, delicious cold summer soup.

Not only does it taste good, it also looks delicious. It's so good that you'll want to post it on Instagram and tag your family and friends.

Another cold soup recipe you could incorporate into lunches is peach gazpacho. I have even sent my oven roasted tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons.

🍓 Ingredients for Chilled Strawberry soup:

strawberries - using fresh or frozen strawberries works when you make strawberry soup. If you want to learn how to freeze strawberries, I can teach you!
sour cream - for once I am going to say that you can use low fat sour cream. I am usually an advocate for full fat but this recipe will work with a lower fat sour cream.
Vanilla yogurt - vanilla yogurt gives the recipe another layer of flavor and creaminess. But plain yogurt will work as well.
lime juice - fresh is best but use bottled if that is what you have on hand.
salt - even in sweet dishes salt is good. Salt enhances sweetness.
sugar - just a bit, especially if your strawberries are out of season and need an extra hint of sweetness.
heavy cream - this is why we can use a low-fat sour cream! heavy cream is coming in to help balance the soup.

🥄 How to make this chilled strawberry soup recipe:

If the strawberries are frozen, thaw them and keep the juices.
In a food processor puree the strawberries, sour cream, yogurt and the rest of the ingredients listed.
If a food processor is not available an immersion blender or blender will work.
Chill for at least an hour.

🌿 Garnishes

While the strawberry soup is lovely on its own you may want to offer a few garnishes to the recipe to give a bit of decoration, added flavors and contrast in texture. I would suggest:

Diced fresh strawberries
Whipped cream
Vanilla yogurt dollop
Granola
Toasted angel food cake
Pound cake squares
Sliced mint
Lime zest

Storage Tips

Freezing strawberry soup is a great way of enjoying it at a later date if you make a large batch or want to prepare it ahead of time. Fill freezer safe airtight containers with soup, leaving a bit of space at the top for freezing expansion and don't forget to mark the date on them. Allow to thaw in the refrigerator.

📝 Frequently asked questions, answers and tips:

Can strawberry soup be sent in a school lunch?

Strawberry soup can easily be sent in a school lunch. Pour the soup into an insulated container so it will stay chilled until lunch. If an insulated container is unavailable, freeze the soup overnight and pack in the lunch box in the morning. By lunchtime, the soup will be thawed and still chilled.

Chef Tip

For a silky smooth soup, strain the soup through a fine mesh strainer or a single layer of cheesecloth to remove the strawberry seeds and any unpureed bits of strawberry.
