Easy Avocado Soup

This cozy side dish is a great way to add bone broth to your diet.

It’s a quick and easy soup recipe for when you’re sick but so good you’ll want it when you’re well. Remember this recipe next time you have low energy but need to nourish yourself.

Serve this soup with any protein, from beef and chicken to pork and fish, you can’t go wrong. I have even used it as a dressing over salad greens!

A piece of toasted Psyllium Husk Keto Bread pairs nicely on the side. Low-carb bread is just the thing you need for whipping the bowl clean.

With how easy this soup is to make, it’s my go-to when my avocados are ripe and the day is busy.

How to Make a Hot Avocado Soup

Gather the ten ingredients, and you’re halfway to making an easy avocado soup in 20 minutes or less!

Ingredients

Coconut oil – The subtle sweetness of coconut oil perfectly brings out the spices in this soup with avocado. 

Mushrooms – Shiitakes are a good source of fiber, copper, vitamin D, and a whole list of other health-giving and immune-enhancing properties. (1, 2)

I chose shiitakes for this recipe because my neighbor is a shiitake grower, and also for their strong, earthy flavor and velvety, meaty texture.

Additionally, they unleash an awesome smell when you sauté them. If you can’t find shiitakes, you can substitute them with porcini, oyster, maitake, criminis, or portabellos. 

Spices – Turmeric, ginger, and garlic are warming and comforting each in their own right, but together they make an unbeatable triage of flavor.

Dulse flakes – If you aren’t accustomed to adding seaweed in your diet yet, I recommend trying dulse flakes at least once! 

Salt and pepper – Just a pinch for seasoning.

Bone broth – Homemade is best, so learn how to make beef bone broth on the stovetop or follow my Slow Cooker Beef Bone Broth recipe instead. Either way, it’s a nourishing liquid base for any soup. If you prefer a premade option, I suggest stocking up on a bundle of organic Kettle and Fire bone broth.

Avocado – Ripe avocados give the soup the creamy thickness that makes the recipe. It’s worth the wait to get the perfect texture of the avocado because that is when they taste the best. You want the avocado to be just slightly soft beneath your fingertips. Too mushy isn’t good! Avocados at peak ripeness have a bright, nutty flavor that may make you go avocontrol

If you can’t make this recipe right away, you can freeze avocados at their perfect ripeness. The texture won’t be the same as fresh avocados, but they’re still better than overripe ones.

Directions

  1. Warm the coconut oil in a skillet over medium-low heat.
  2. Add the mushrooms, turmeric, ginger, and garlic to the pan. Make sure to chop up the stems and throw them in the pan first because they need an extra minute more than the caps to cook through. Stir fry for 3 minutes before sprinkling the dulse on the mushroom mixture and seasoning with salt and pepper.
  3. Continue cooking for up to 7 minutes more until mushrooms are soft and tender.
  4. Then, add broth to the pan, increase to high heat, and continue until warm.
  5. Next, transfer the broth mushroom mixture to a blender, add the avocado, and blend until smooth. Blend in a high-speed blender like a Vitamix or a regular blender. It doesn’t need a lot of power, so whatever you have will do. In a pinch, you could also employ an impression blender to do the job.
  6. Serve warm with extra cracked pepper for garnish.

Creamy Avocado Soup Tips and FAQ

If you’re new to low-carb meal prep or don’t have much experience with easy soup recipes, you might be asking these common queries. Let me help!

Can I freeze avocado soup?

Freeze leftover avocado soup in freezer-safe containers for up to 3 months. Then, thaw in the fridge overnight and gently reheat on the stove before serving.

Can you add avocado to soup?

Avocado in soup is a great addition. Adding avocado in chunks as a garnish or blending it into the soup to make it creamy are both fine options. If you overcook the creamy avocado soup, it may turn the color brownish. Just follow the directions in the recipe card below, and you can’t mess it up!

Can you cook avocado in soup?

We don’t recommend cooking avocado in soup. It’s better to cook other ingredients first and then blend the avocado into the soup just prior to serving.

Can a ripe avocado be added to homemade soup?

Yes! Ripe avocados are ideal for this homemade soup recipe. It’s worth the wait until the avo softens and is ready. A ripe avocado gives better texture and flavor to your soup than an unripe one.

    I made this for dinner last night but used chicken broth instead of bone broth, as that’s what I had on hand, and it was perfect! Do you think it would work with other mushrooms other than shiitake? I want to make it again but don’t want to go to the store for more.

    1. Hi Dina – thanks for trying our recipe. Yes, any mushrooms would work…shiitake just have a very rich flavor that comes through best in broth.
