Raw Avocado and Cilantro Soup Print 1 LikeDislike By Dana James This year, I’m taking the Meatless Monday challenge of going vegetarian one day per week. As I like to push things a little further, my aim is to make it a raw vegan day (which also means black coffee for the day – the toughest part). The inspiration? Helping out the environment and getting more creative with vegan recipes.Here’s a great one to incorporate into your Meatless Monday routine or any day of the week: Raw Avocado and Cilantro Soup.The recipe is for 2 servings. Make up both as it’s so delicious you’ll want to eat it as your next meal. Don’t be fearful of the avocado. 1/2 an avocado is only 160 calories and it will keep you satiated for hours as well as supply an abundance of Vitamin E and skin beautifying phytonutrients.
