AWESOME AVOCADO SOUP


AWESOME AVOCADO SOUP

Description:
It sounds a little bit strange, however this is my favorite Salba recipe! This soup is very tasty and the avocado makes the soup unbelievably tasty and creamy. This soup is also perfect for a dinner party to surprise your friends! For more Salba recipes go to: www.sourcesalba.com

Ingredients:
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup canned corn kernels drained
- 2 tomatoes peeled and seeded, chopped
- 1 leek, chopped
- 1 garlic glove, chopped
- 2 cups of vegetable broth for a thick soup (If you want a thinner soup use more broth)
- ¼ cup Salba soaked in ¾ cup water
- optional: red chili if you like it hot and spicy.

Cooking Instructions:
- Peel the avocado and mash the flesh with a fork. Stir in lemon juice and reserve until needed.
- Heat the vegetable oil. Add corn, tomatoes, garlic, leek, chili and sauté on a low heat for 5-6 minutes until soft.
- Put half of the vegetable mixture in a food processor or blender, together with the mashed avocado, the Salba gel and the hot vegetable broth and process until smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to a clean pot.
- Add the reserved vegetables.
- Serve directly with garnish. For example: corn kernels, red chili or parsley.
