Turkey and avocado soup

A recipe by me. Serves 3 or 4 for lunch. Really easy, especially if made with leftovers.
I made this as a travelling lunch -  home made stock boiled down to a concentrate and made up to volume with water, and the cubed turkey and guacamole kept carefully cold. This is a hot soup.

Soup

1 cup leftover cubed turkey (or chicken, I guess)
1 litre chicken stock (or turkey, I guess)
1 cup of rough guacamole

Bring the stock to the boil. Add the turkey and bring back to the boil. Add the guacamole and heat til piping hot. Serve at once.

Rough guacamole

2 -3 cloves garlic
spring onion
fresh chile to taste
1/2 cup coriander leaf (cilantro), chopped but not too fine
2 limes
2 avocados
1 t salt

Chop the garlic finely, the spring onion in very thin rings, the chile very finely. Put the coriander on top of these and squeeze over half a lime. Halve and peel the avocados and put on top of the rest. Sprinkle the salt over. With a fork, roughly mash all together until the big lumps are gone. Squeeze over the rest of the lime juice and mix again. Serve.
