I just tried this soup today. Even though the taste is very mild. I really did enjoy it. I did add cilantro because I feel the two go very well together. The soup is also very filling with a side of Orange Roughy baked.

the soup was very good, but it would be better with some type of garnish. i used plain greek yogurt, and the consistancy was perfect. very easy to make

I am not a fan of avocados, but wanted to try this recipe anyways. The texture is great, but the flavor is dismal. I did add some red pepper and garlic salt; it did nothing for me, but some of my friends that like avocados thought it was ok. Good idea, but not the soup for me.
