Avocado And Vegetable Soup Recipes

AVOCADO AND VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Pell the avocado and mash the flesh with a fork, stir in the lemon juice and set to the side.
• Heat the oil in a large pan. Add corn, tomatoes, garlic, leek, and chile. Saute over low heat for 2-3 minutes, until softened.
• Put half the vegetable muxture in a blender or food processor, along with the avocado. Process until smooth. Put the mixture in a clean pan.
• Add vegetable stock, milk, and remaining vegetables and cook on low for 3-4 minutes. Transfer to warmed serving bowls and serve immediately, or cover and chill for 4 hours.

AVOCADO SOUP WITH CHILE OIL

Steps:

• Make the soup: Heat a medium pot over medium-low. Add the oil and heat, then add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and slightly brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook to slightly brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add the vegetable broth.
• Allow the mixture to come to a simmer and cook until the onion and garlic are soft and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes, then add the almond milk and turn off the heat. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm.
• To finish the soup, combine the avocados, cilantro, lime juice, broth mixture and a pinch of salt in a blender. Blend until completely smooth, adding up to ½ cup of broth or water as needed if the mixture is too thick. (You may need to do this in batches.) Taste and season with more salt if necessary. Chill if you prefer the soup cold.
• Make the chile oil: Heat a small saucepan over medium-low, then add the oil and chiles. Continuously stir the chiles in the hot oil until they become fragrant, deepen in color and stain the oil a red-orange hue, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor with a pinch of salt and pulse until the chiles are finely ground.
• Serve at room temperature or refrigerate until chilled to serve cold. Divide the soup among bowls and garnish with pepitas, chives, tortilla chips and chile oil.

VEGETARIAN TORTILLA SOUP WITH AVOCADO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Arrange tortilla strips on a baking sheet and lightly with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Heat peanut oil in a stockpot over medium-high heat; saute onion, red bell pepper, and garlic until onion is translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomatoes with juice, zucchini, corn, and mushrooms; saute until zucchini is slightly softened, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Mix vegetable broth, chili powder, hot sauce, salt, and pepper into vegetable mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer soup until vegetables are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir cilantro into soup and remove stockpot from heat.
• Ladle soup into serving bowls; top with tortilla strips, avocado slices, and Monterey Jack cheese.
