Peel and rinse the tomatillos to remove their sticky outer layer. Cut them into quarters and set aside.
Peel the cucumber, remove the seeds if desired, and cut it into large chunks.
Place the tomatillos, cucumber, Greek yogurt, vegetable broth, garlic, and jalapeño into a blender or food processor.
Add the cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Blend everything until smooth. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, lime juice, or pepper if needed.
Transfer the soup to a large bowl, cover, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, dice the avocado into small cubes for garnish.
Serve the chilled soup in bowls, topping each portion with a few cubes of avocado and a sprig of cilantro for presentation.
