Garden Salad With Rye Bread And Avocado, Accompanied By Creamy Soup Recipe

Garden Salad

Start by washing all your vegetables. Dice or slice the lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers to your liking. Slice the avocado and add it to the mixed vegetables. You can also include any other salad ingredients you prefer, like nuts or seeds for added texture. Toss everything together in a large bowl, and dress lightly with olive oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper, or a dressing of your choice.

Rye Bread

If the rye bread isn't pre-sliced, slice it into pieces about half an inch thick. You may choose to toast the bread lightly for added crunch and flavor. Serve alongside the salad.

Creamy Soup

Begin with a base of sautéed onions and garlic in a pot. Add diced vegetables of your choice (corn, potatoes, carrots, celery) and sauté for a few more minutes. Pour in vegetable or chicken broth, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer until the vegetables are tender. Blend part of the soup to achieve a creamy texture, then mix back together. Add heavy cream, salt, pepper, and any desired seasonings to taste. Serve hot.
