Cucumber and Avacado Soup

1 avocado
1 cucumber peeled and seeded
garlic
lemon juice
s and p
ice cubes
chicken bouillon or reduced stock
cilantro
radish

put avocado and cucumber in bowl with garlic and cilantro
blend with hand blender
add ice cubes and blend till crushed
add s and p and cilantro blend.
when it is done it will be smooth and thick. Too thick add more ice
I cut a radish into slivers and put it on top of soup as garnish. very nice

1 ripe avocado, 1 or 2 cucumbers cut into chunks (can keep the skin on if not waxed), 1 chicken bouillon cube, a handful of fresh cilantro, 1 tsp or less of garlic chili paste for a little heat, 2 cloves fresh garlic, a tbs or so of preserved lemons or if you don't have any use juice of a lime or lemon, 4 ice cubes, a little fresh ground pepper, add water near top......then blend. Et voila!
