This is a deliciously different use for avocados. I add sour cream and bacon bits to garnish the smooth texture of the avocado soup and to add some extra flavor. -Bernice Orm, Ojai, California

ULTRAFAST AVOCADO SOUP

Ultrafast Avocado Soup image

Little or no cooking is one way to keep the kitchen cool in the summer, but if the food you produce is cool (and delicious, of course), that's a real plus. Cold soups are a common solution. It's difficult to imagine one simpler than this one, and impossible to imagine one richer and creamier.

Ingredients

About 2 cups chopped ripe avocado flesh (3 or 4 small avocados)
3 cups milk, preferably whole
Salt and cayenne pepper to taste
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice, or to taste

Steps:

Put chopped avocado in a blender. Add half the milk, a large pinch of salt and a small pinch of cayenne; process to a purée. Add remaining milk and purée, then chill for up to 6 hours if you have time (press a piece of plastic wrap to surface of soup so it does not discolor).
