Avocado Cilantro Soup Recipes

AVOCADO SOUP

Steps:

• Prep: Peel and deseed the avocados, scooping the flesh into a blender. Add all remaining ingredients to blender, adding just a pinch of salt.
• Blend: Blend until smooth. Taste and add salt and more lime juice as needed. Serve immediately, optionally topping with croutons, diced avocado, and a drizzle of cream (or coconut milk).

CHILLED AVOCADO-CILANTRO SOUP

Steps:

• In a blender or a food processor, combine 2 of the avocados, the stock or broth, lime juice, yogurt, and sour cream. Blend until smooth.
• Add the tomato and cilantro. Pulse until the tomato is coarsely chopped, not puree.
• Pour into a bowl and season with salt. Coarsely chop the remaining avocado half and stir into the soup. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Ladle into bowls and serve with a dash of hot sauce.

SPICY LIME AVOCADO SOUP

• Combine 4 cups water and bouillon powder in a small bowl. Pour into the pot. Let cook until just heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir chicken into the pot.
