Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the chopped yellow tomatoes and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to break down.
  4. Add enough water to just cover the tomatoes, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until tomatoes are very tender.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or standard blender.
  6. Season the soup with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  7. Transfer the soup to a bowl or pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until thoroughly chilled.
  8. While the soup chills, prepare the garnish: mash the avocado with the lime juice, 1 teaspoon olive oil, and chopped shallot.
  9. Stir the diced red tomato, halved pear tomatoes, and diced tomatillos into the avocado mixture.
  10. Ladle the cold soup into bowls and top with a generous spoonful of the avocado-tomato mixture.
  11. Garnish with slivered fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
