Kathy Freston--who's lastest book, The Daily Lean, is full of practical tips for veganism--has a knack for getting people to eat what's good for them. In this case, her "Daily Lean" tip turns avocados into something decadent...dare we say ecstatic.
"Today's Lean: Chilled Avocado Soup
I love soup year-round, but sometimes on a hot day, a nice chilled soup is the perfect treat to cool off! This recipe by Chef Tal Ronnen is rich, creamy and fresh, yet super easy to make. Have it with a nice hearty salad or with a piece of toasted whole grain bread and you have a perfect summer lunch. Yum!
Makes 4 servings
2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted
1/3 cup peas, cooked and cooled
4 cups cold vegetable stock
Juice from 1 lime
Salt and pepper to taste
Puree the ingredients in a blender until smooth. Serve chilled."

I just made the avocado soup and it was delicious. Also, surprisingly filling!
I used my immersion blender wand. You don't even need a blender. Who knew?
Thanks, Kathy:)
