Avocado watercress and pasilla chile soup

[Reesh]

I saw some fantastic living cress at the market today and knew it would be great in a soup with avocado. I'm sure this recipe is out there somewhere done by others but here's how I winged it:

4 small avocados or 2-3 large ones
2 cups filtered water
2 cloves of garlic
1 large dried Pasilla chile
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
juice of 1 fresh lemon
1 bunch of watercress (living if you can find it)
1/4 cup olive oil

diced tomato and some left over watercress for garnish

Blend it until smooth and enjoy!

While I know I have nothing to prove to my friends and family about my diet, I do want to show off my raw culinary creations, make them all want to lick their screen and maybe they'll all start to think: hey-- raw food looks really freakin delicious. I should try some of these recipes.

I made Cream of Leek soup the other day. I got two huge beautiful Leeks from my Co-op.

It came out much too strong. My SO said it gave him heartburn and gave his portion to me. I didn't like it either (used too much Leek-didn't realize how strong leek is).

Anyway, I added more water too it and put in the fridge utterly disgusted that I wasted my zucchini and other veggies. Well, determined to not throw food away, I decided to eat it for lunch the next day, and it was almost perfect.

I'm going to try more soup recipes.

I'm not an avocado fan, but that looks really good!
