Avocado and Yellow Squash Soup

2 avocados

2 cans of yellow squash-do not drain

1 teaspoon sriracha sauce

2 cups chicken or vegetable broth

2 garlic cloves

1 squeeze of a lime

1 small yellow onion-diced

Pinch of salt

 In a sauce pan, sauté fresh minced garlic and onions with about a teaspoon of olive oil.  Cook for 2 minutes and transfer to a food processor and add remaining ingredients.  Puree until smooth and creamy.  Put back on the stove and simmer for 10 minutes.  Garnish with a few diced tomatoes and sriracha.  The avocado gave the soup a creamy consistency without adding heavy cream or milk.  The sriracha and lime added a tangy spice that paired well with the other ingredients.
