Avocado Soup

INGREDIENTS

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 medium avocado
2 tsp tamari
1 cup vegetable broth
1 1/2 cup of water
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Sea salt
Cilantro, chopped (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute the onion until it is translucent, then set aside.

Peel avocado and remove the pit. Combine the onion, avocado, tamari, broth, water, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor and blend well. When the mixture is smooth, pour back into the saucepan and let it come to a boil. Simmer for 2 or 3 minutes. Add salt to taste and serve immediately, garnished with cilantro if using.
