AvoSoup

Chilled Avocado & Cucumber Soup

1 ripe (or slightly overripe) avocado
1 large cucumber, peeled
½ cup fresh dill, chopped (more if you’re a big dill fan)
1 tbsp lime or lemon juice
1 cup buttermilk
¾ cup vegetable or chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste


Chop up avocado and cucumber into (approximately) 1-inch chunks.

Throw all ingredients into a large mixing bowl and stir until everything is evenly distributed.

Pour the mixture into a blender or food processor (or use an immersion blender, the best kitchen tool ever.) Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and combined. Top with a pretty sprig of dill and enjoy this cool, creamy, oh-so-nutritious treat.
