We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Soup ... Add the melon, jalapeno, cilantro, 1 teaspoon honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a blender; and, pulse to puree. Taste and add more honey, salt and pepper, if necessary; it really depends on how sweet the melon is. Also, I like a bit of heat, but start out with 1/2 of a jalapeno ... you can always add more. You can't remove the heat - but, you can always add some. Finish by adding a spoon (1 tablespoon) of the Greek yogurt, and pulse 1 more time - this will make it a bit creamy. Don't forget to season 1 more time if needed. Then, transfer to a bowl, or you can chill it right in your blender. Make sure to refrigerate at least 2-3 hours before serving.

  • Step 2: Serve and ENJOY! ... Simply serve and garnish. I like a small dollop of Greek yogurt, a small slice of lime, and cilantro. It is simple and delicious. It's a bit sweet and spicy; and, pairs wonderfully with Mexican food. But, such a nice soup to entertain with.
