Can I make this without yogurt?

Yes, swap Greek yogurt with coconut cream for a dairy-free version. Still creamy and keto-approved.

Is it okay to use regular cucumbers?

Yes, but you’ll want to remove the seeds or your gazpacho may turn watery. Stick with thinner-skinned varieties when possible.

How can I serve it for a party?

Use chilled shot glasses for mini servings with skewered shrimp. It makes a beautiful low-carb starter.

Does it need a blender?

Ideally, yes. But in a pinch, you can finely grate the cucumbers and whisk everything by hand for a rustic version.

What’s a good garnish?

Extra chopped dill, cracked pepper, a swirl of Greek yogurt, or even finely diced red peppers work well.

Can I turn it into a smoothie?

It’s a little savory for that, but if you like veggie smoothies, skip the garlic and go for it!

What does it pair well with?

Try it with grilled meats or a chilled starter like this Din Tai Fung-Style Cucumber Salad for a refreshing full plate.
