Kid-friendly Avocado Soup Recipe

It was a busy workday for me, and I needed to figure out a quick and painless for dinner last night. When I looked around to see what I could toss together, I saw a large bowl of avocados staring at me from my friend Caryn. She had picked these delicious avocados especially for me to enjoy, and I wanted to create a delicious recipe with these fresh avocados.

I tossed a couple of ingredients into my blender and in less than 10 minutes dinner was ready. We ended up serving the soup warm to the kids last night, but I thought it tasted better cold when I had it for lunch in the afternoon. We served it with a warm piece of Italian bread, and the kids enjoyed every bite!
