    Cantaloupe Soup

    (Gluten-free, gout-friendly, low-sodium)

    This is a picture-pretty first course for a summer meal. Make in advance and serve chilled.

    Ingredients

    • 2 cantaloupes

    • 1 tsp ground ginger

    • 1/4 tsp nutmeg

    • 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream, plus 4 tsp for garnish

    Directions

    Cut cantaloupes in half. Remove seeds. With a spoon or melon baller, remove fruit from flesh. Refrigerate rinds to use as soup "bowls."

    Put melon into blender with sour cream and spices. Blend to a creamy consistency. Refrigerate for at least an hour to chill soup and let flavors blend.

    Pour soup into melon bowls and swirl in a teaspoon of sour cream as a garnish.
