12 Chilled Soup Recipes Perfect For Summer, Because Warm Weather Is No Reason To Stop Getting Your Soup Fix

I'm just going to say it: If you aren't eating soup during the warmer months, you are missing out. But that doesn't mean you need to go turn on your stove — chilled soup is one of the most perfect summer foods that is also shockingly easy to make. It's a wonder that it doesn't get as much love as it deserves.

For a meal that's more satisfying than a salad and as comforting as your favorite wintertime go-to, just pull out your blender and start mixing together some vegetables or even fruits. You'll be surprised how versatile and diverse chilled soup recipes can really be. One thing's for sure though — they're guaranteed to be delicious.
