Avocado Cucumber Gazpacho

5 from 1 vote
I am all about recipes with avocados these days -- they're incredibly nutritious, high in potassium, low in sugar, loaded with heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids and fiber, and all over local supermarkets in the summer. With the weather getting hotter I like my soup colder, like gazpacho, which is traditionally made with tomatoes but I updated this Spanish-style soup to include avocados and cucumbers instead. With just five main ingredients and ready in under five minutes, this recipe could not be easier to make, PLUS it’s keto-friendly! (For picnics and road trips, I pack this one in a cool thermos and it’s good for about 3-4 hours.)  
Servings: 4

Instructions
