Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender or large food processor, and puree until completely smooth. (If all of the ingredients don’t initially fit, you can puree the first half of the ingredients, then gradually add more in as there is more room available.)
Taste, and season with extra salt and pepper and/or lemon juice if needed.
Cover and refrigerate for a few hours to chill. Or serve immediately, topped with your desired garnishes.
