Green Energy Soup

I just made this today and I want to eat it everyday! It is packed with nutrition and extremely alkalinizing. Just put it all in the blender:
Green Energy Soup 
(from my book "Going Raw" by Judita Wignall)
2 cups water
5 leaves kale, stems removed, chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cucumber, chopped
2 Tbsp lime juice
2-3 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp sea salt
pinch cayenne pepper (opt)
1 avocado
pepper to taste
Blend in vita mix (best option, but regular blender is ok, just won't be as smooth). The lime juice makes this amazing, so don't leave it out. What a refreshing, completely raw meal that is so easy to eat and very tasty!

Note: If your produce is room temp (such as if you just came back from the store), and if you blend in a Vita Mix or Blendtech, the soup will be luke warm (or warmer depending on how long you blend for) which I thought tasted great, especially if you're not used to cold soups (such as the Spanish "gazpacho"). Please don't microwave this, or heat it up... half the nutrients will be killed, and the whole point of this soup is that it contains awesome nutrients for your body. :)
