Health Benefits of Avocados
If you're thinking you should avoid this avocado soup recipe because of the fat, read on.
Avocados are an impressive source of nutrients and healthy fat. The nearly 20 vitamins and minerals in one avocado can help control your blood pressure, fight off disease and infection, and even repair cells during pregnancy.
The fat in avocados is called monounsaturated fat. Eating it in moderation helps lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease.
Even the carbohydrates in avocados are good for you. They're mostly comprised of fiber which helps with digestion and can make you feel full for longer.
Make It Your Own
The best part about this refreshing avocado soup is that you can add or subtract many of your favorite ingredients and still create a tasty, nutritious snack. It is wonderful topped with ceviche or other seafood, croutons, or slices of your favorite vegetable.
