Avocados are a luscious fruit commonly served as guacamole or diced into Mexican dishes. Rich with healthy fats, fiber, and other health promoting vitamins and minerals, this super fruit should be a part of your everyday vegan menu. This vegan avocado soup is a basic recipe that can be served chilled or warm or prepared plain or dressed up with herbs, spices, or other ingredients you have on hand.

Chilled Avocado Soup

Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 3 large ripe avocados, halved, pitted, peeled
  • 1 large ripe tomato, seeded, chopped
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 (32-ounce) container Pacific Foods Organic Mushroom Broth
  • Sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions:

  1. Scoop avocados into a food processor or blender.
  2. Add tomato, lemon zest and juice. Puree until smooth.
  3. In a medium saucepan, whisk together avocado mixture and broth until smooth.
  4. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. You can serve this warm by heating it over medium heat or you can refrigerate until chilled and serve it cold.

Cook’s note: For a change, season the soup with your favorite fresh or dried herbs, add heat with a jalapeno or chipotle powder, or sprinkle in Chinese 5-spice powder.

  1. Thanks for the recipe. For me, I would leave the lemon out (I just made it and there’s always something about lemon that bothers me in terms of most recipes for whatever reason: call me kooky!:). Other than that I’m looking forward to eating it and the mushroom broth is a brilliant idea with the avocado/tomato. It makes it savory. I added a little coconut milk in it to give it a slightly ‘tropical’ taste. Thanks again! It always awesome finding people sharing vegan recipes! Namaste!
