Spicy tomato and avocado soup (no cooking)

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
5 Cloves garlic
1 can (little) of chopped mild jalapeno pepper (you can use whatever temperature of peppers you want of course. I actually use the medium)
1½ Avocado pitted and peeled
4 cups Tomato juice ( like to use fresh pureed tomatoes when I can get them garden grown)
¼ Finely chopped fresh cilantro
½ cup Finely diced red onion
1 medium Onion coarsely chopped if using canned tomato juice or even if using fresh tomatoes if you want
1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice

Directions

In blender, puree the garlic, pepper and the 1½ avocado with 2 C tomato juice Pur into a pitcher or bowl and add rest of the tomato juice, cilantro, red onion, tomato (if using), lemon juice and the remaining ½ avocado, chopped. Mix and chill at least 1 hour.

Variation: I am sure it will come as no surprise to you that my friend put vodka into this also. Posted to fatfree digest V97 #179 by Gloriamarie Amalfitano <gma@...> on Aug 14, 1997
