Okay, I know what you are thinking. Are you becoming a vegan Pam? The answer is no for now, but that could change. What I am doing is exploring different food to explore the fullness of my palate! For a while now I have seen recipes online for raw dishes and I always wanted to try something different. It beats me getting back on the eating fast food track. So I think this raw soup is delightful, it's creamy and most of all it's quick to make. It is not expensive and most of all it is savory to the fullest. I used my magic bullet to make this in a few short seconds. I think you can easily prepare this in a quality blender, or a food processor. It is really good. Serve cold. I liked it that way. Enjoy.
Ingredients
1/2 large avocado (cost. 99 cent)
1 large apple (any variety, but I used red apple)
1/2 cup of water
1 teaspoon of kosher salt (optional)
a pinch of red pepper flakes
a handful of spinach or collard greens leaves
Instructions
- Wash and cut apple and spinach leaves.
- Set aside leaves for garnishing.
- Put apple slices in your blender or food processor with avocado. Add water and pulse.
- Mix for 1-5 minutes. In my bullet this took 2 minutes.
- Serve in bowl. Add leaves and red bell flakes for garnish.
- Enjoy
Avocado is a healthy fat. Apples are a joy to eat. The sweetness of the apple is complimentary and your mouth will sing when this enters it.
