  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 (15-ounce) jar green enchilada sauce (mild or medium)

Directions

In a soup pot over medium heat, add oil and cook onions, bell peppers and oregano for 6 to 8 minutes or until onions are tender. Stir in enchilada sauce, avocados and 3 cups stock. Purée in batches in a blender or food processor until smooth.
