Directions
- Place all ingredients, except those for the garnish, in a blender (I use a high speed blender called a Blendtec) and process until fairly smooth. If you want it to be completely pureed, blend away until it’s the consistency you like; I personally prefer it to retain some texture.
- Pour into bowl(s) and add diced avocado and additional fresh basil to garnish, if desired.
