Made your avocado soup this evening...what a Revelation! I love avocados and eat them almost everyday but never thought of making soup. We crunched up some of our favorite lime tortilla chips and the soup was incredibly delicious as well as very creamy - without the cream! Looking forward to your next recipe. Keep em coming!
