This is a cold, garlicky Spanish soup - perfect in summer, especially if you can't make it to Spain. Fresh almonds, just out of their shells, are traditionally used. This version calls for ground almonds, as fresh almonds are hard to come by here.

I had this at a tapas bar in Spain way back and was able to figure out how to make it. It's an easy way to clean out the fridge and cupboard. And, perfect for a low carb diet. I was introduced to this as a tapa. But you could always pair it with a salad or other veggie side dish for dinner.
