Recipes Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes Soup Recipes Simple Cucumber Soup 4.1 (22) 16 Reviews 4 Photos The most simple yet one of the best soups I had so far. A simplified version of my mum's cucumber soup. No need for salt, pepper, or seasonings, just a good vegetable broth. I like to have it with a good slice of toasted bread and some good cheese.
