Avocado Lime Soup ( This is a regular favorite that we serve at G-zen my restaurant in Branford CT
2 avocados
3/4 of a medium cucumber
1 stalk celery
Juice of 1 lime
Small handful of fresh coriander (cilantro)
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon tamari
1 cup water (if wanting warm soup use hot water)
Sour cream and chopped chives to garnish
Blend all ingredients, except the sour cream and chopped chives, in a high-speed blender until smooth.
Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with sour cream and chopped chives.
Sour cream
1 1/2 cups cashews
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender. Add a little extra water one tablespoon at a time if you’re having trouble getting the cashews smooth.
Transfer to a bowl or squeeze bottle. Keep refrigerated. Will firm up a little in the fridge, which makes an excellent dip for crudites.
