Notes
- Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados, adjust the quantity accordingly.
- Chicken, stock, broth, or bone broth can be used.
- Fresh lime juice is the best option for this soup.
- If you do not like cilantro, this soup is likely not for you. However, you can substitute parsley, but the soup's flavor will change.
