Yummy, sounds good! I loooove avocados. Does the soup change colors or does the lime help keep the avocado bright and green?
ReplyDeletei found that if you have to refrigerate the left overs it does lose colour but if eaten straight away it's a nice bright colour!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea and perfect for the summer weather!
ReplyDeleteWow. It looks amazing and yummy. Good recipe. Avocado is very healthy and has many health benefits. It is rich in nutrients and is excellent as conditioner and makes one’s locks lustrous and smooth, it helps to get rid of the frizz from hair, also helps preventing hair loss and its nutrients helps for good hair growth.
ReplyDeleteIf you want avocado to NOT change colour, even the leftovers, cover it with plastic wrap, RIGHT ON TOP of the gazpacho, that way the air will not oxidese the avocado, which is the cause of the change of colour. When covering, try to leave no air bubbles trapped on the plastic, that way the colour will be smooth.
