Blend soup with a handheld blender. Add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.

Mary's Oil Blend ( Add to shopping list ) :
1 Cup(s) gently melted oil, coconut
1 Cup(s) expeller or cold pressed oil, sesame
1 Cup(s) extra virgin oil, olive
Directions:
Mix all ingredients together in a glass jar, cover tightly, and store at room temperature.

* This wonderful blend of three oils can be used in salad dressings or as a cooking oil. when used for cooking, flavors come through beautifully, and the blend does not burn as easily as pure coconut oil. In salads, it provides all the benefits of coconut oil and does not have the strong taste of olive oil. In mayonnaise, it provides firmness when chilled.
