As I said yesterday, I went back to Ann Arbor, Michigan for the weekend and dined at a few of my favorite restaurants  One of them is Pacific Rim, found at 114 W Liberty Street.  Out of everything my family ordered that night (spring rolls, the farmer’s salad, avocado soup, miso-teriyaki salmon, and barramundi), my favorite was surprising to me…the avocado soup. We ordered the soup just to taste, but I quickly confiscated the bowl.  The soup was flavored with jalapenos and had chunks of lobster tail…yum!

Avocado Soup

I was hesitant to order the soup, but since I enjoyed it so much, I am going to try THIS recipe from Epicurious.

2 ripe medium avocados, halved, pitted

3/4 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup plain yogurt

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1 1/2 tablespoons chopped seeded jalepeño chili

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 cup (about) canned low-salt chicken broth

Chopped red onion
