DIRECTIONS
Roughly chop all vegetables and scoop avocado flesh out of its skin. In a food processor, puree vegetables, avocado, 1/4 cup cilantro, lime juice, vinegar, tomato juice, Peruvian Chile Lime, ground pepper and paprika for at least 5 min. until smooth. If your food processor is small, you may have to puree in batches. Chill for 1 to 2 hours before serving.

Serve with a dollop of crème fraiche or sour cream and chopped fresh cilantro.
