Cold Avocado Soup

Directions

Pit and peel the avocado, then cut into chunks.

In a blender, whirl the avocado, half and half, broth and lemon juice until smooth.

(To prepare in a food processor, whirl the avocado with the half and half until puréed then add the broth and lemon juice and whirl until smooth.)

Ladle the soup into wide shallow bowls.

Garnish each portion with chives, if desired.
