Immunity-Boosting Avocado Gazpacho
Updated: Jun 3, 2020
Avocados are an excellent source of healthy omega-3 fats and a wide range of phytonutrients. They help with blood sugar control, insulin regulation, satiety, weight management, and inflammation. Include collagen peptides to provide a clean source of amino acids and complement this fiber-rich and nutrient-packed cold soup.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cucumber, diced
1 ripe avocado, pitted
1 cup full-fat unsweetened coconut or almond milk yogurt
1/4 cup fresh mint, minced (or 4 whole sprigs)
1/4 cup fresh basil, minced (or 4 whole leaves)
1 small handful fresh spinach
2 tbsp raw tahini
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp wheatgrass powder (optional)
1–2 scoops collagen peptides (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
INSRUCTIONS
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, thick, and creamy.
Refrigerate for 1–2 hours before serving.
Drizzle with a high phenolic extra virgin olive oil and top with chia seeds, bee pollen, or shelled raw hemp seeds for an additional superfood punch!
You can decorate with basil leaves and/or a sliced kiwi.
Bon Appétit!
