GAZPACHO RED BEET SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Chop onion, fennel, leek and garlic. Let sit for 5 minutes. 2. Peel and dice red beets. Set aside. 3. Chop celery and parsley. Set aside. 4. In a small frying pan, add olive oil and lightly fry onions, fennel and garlic with beets at low heat for 2-3 minutes.

Transport blended ingredients to a large bowl. 8. Stir for about 1-2 minutes. Then add spices (add olive oil if you did not fry onions and garlic). Stir well for another minute or so. 9.

Peel avocado and cut in slices or pieces. 12. Add avocado to bowls (distribute evenly). 13. Serve and enjoy!
