AVOCADO CORN SOUP From Chilean Hass Avocados

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011

When it comes to avocados, I thoroughly enjoy them. Brenda used to have several avocado trees in her yard, and we always enjoyed them. However, she had so many, she shared them with the local Mexican restaurant in Santa Barbara. When I saw this recipe for Avocado Corn Soup from Chilean Hass Avocados, I had to try it, as well as share. It’s great.

AVOCADO CORN SOUP

MAKES 4 SERVINGS

Only four ingredients plus garnish and you have a savory soup that’s perfect for a fall or winter supper or brunch starter. If you wish, use the canned Mexicorn, with bits of red and green pepper. You can also use frozen corn kernels and cook them in the microwave according to packaged directions. If you wish, chop a quarter cup of any of the fresh herbs suggested, to stir in just before serving. Avocado adds wonderful flavor and richness to the creamy soup, and there are only 200 calories per satisfying serving.
