Steps:
- Bring enough water to the boil to cover the tomatoes when they are added. Cut away and discard the cores from the tomatoes. Drop the tomatoes into the water and let stand about 20 seconds.
- Drain the tomatoes and pull away the skin. Cut each tomato crosswise in half. Squeeze gently to remove the seeds.
- Cut the tomatoes into small cubes. There should be about one and one-half to two cups. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a skillet and add the vermicelli or cappellini. Cook, stirring, until the pasta is golden. Do not overcook. Remove and drain, leaving the oil in the skillet.
- Add the onions and garlic to the oil remaining in the skillet and cook briefly until the onions are wilted.
- Add the tomatoes and stir. Cook about one minute and add the chilies. The chilies are not essential, but they give a very special character to the soup.
- Pour the mixture into the container of a food processor or electric blender and blend as thoroughly as possible. There should be about one and three-quarters cups.
- Bring the chicken broth to the boil in a large saucepan and add the tomato mixture. Bring the mixture to the boil and add the vermicelli. Cook until the vermicelli is tender, three to five minutes.
- Cut the avocado in half and discard the pit. Cut away and discard the skin. Cut the avocado flesh into half-inch cubes. There should be about one cup. Put the avocado cubes in a bowl and add the lemon juice. Stir to coat the pieces so they do not discolor.
- Place a tablespoon or so of cubed avocado in each of six soup bowls or cups. Spoon an equal portion of the soup into each. Sprinkle with chopped fresh coriander, if desired, and serve with lime wedges on the side, the juice to be added according to individual taste.

SHORT CUT MEXICAN FIDEO (VERMICELLI)
This fideo is simple, quick and delicious. It's great as a light meal or side dish. There are many ways to prepare fideo but for me, this is the quickest. You can add some tomato sauce and a dash of cumin when you add the chicken stock for extra flavor. Add less water if you want drier pasta.

VERMICELLI SOUP
This soup is called "fideo" or "sopa seca" -- dry soup -- and is eaten all over Mexico. It is inexpensive and easy to make. This can be comforting when sick but, it is a GREAT side dish with any kind of meat, poultry, fish. To make it more soupy you can add vegetable broth to taste.

MEXICAN SOPA DE FIDEOS (VERMICELLI MEXICAN STYLE)
This side dish was always a favorite at my grandmother's house. when ever she did not want to make rice or potatos this was the dish. She would serve with pinto beans and a grilled meat and Oh so good. Somtimes we would just grab two tabelspoonfuls and drop & wrap in a soft flour tortilla with a few beans and some salsa on top....

Steps:
- 1. Heat oil in a large saute pan or skillet, Add the package of vermicelli to the oil and with a fork begin to brown your fine pasta. Keep heat at a medium low, so pasta will not scorch. Keep stirring until your vermicelli is pretty much golden brown. Now add the diced onions, garlic and cilantro. Keep mixing and stirring until the onions begin to get limp.
- 2. Next step pull three whole tomatos from the can and mash down real good with a fork add to the vermicelli and continue to saute with the onion. Saute for about a mintue more.
- 3. Now add all the reserved tomato juice from the can of whole tomato minus what ever tomato's remain. (Save for some other recipe) stir the vermicelli a little and now add the chicken broth and seasonings oregano, cumin, salt and pepper Mix everything real well and put your whole jalapeno right in the middle of the simmering vermicelli. Do not cut open the jalapeno. Reduce heat medium low and cover your pasta and let cook for about 15/20 minutes. After twenty minutes have passed uncover and fluff with a fork taste to see if seasonings are right. If pasta is still not cooked but somewhat dry add a little more chicken broth. Check vermicelli pasta to see if it needs more salt If it does then remove jalapeno adjust your seasonings and put jalapeno back in the middle. Leave jalapeno in the middle for garnish looks pretty when served at the table. Jalapeno can be discarded or eaten. Jalapeno imparts good flavor but not heat when cooked this way. Enjoy
- 4. If you use a larger pack of vermicelli then you will need to increase the chicken broth and add a little more salt.

- To make the vegetable stock, start by roughly chopping 2 onions, 3-4 carrots, and 3-4 celery stalks. Add these to a gallon-sized pot along with a dollop of oil. Let the veggies sweat until they are just starting to soften (approx. 10 minutes).
- Fill the pot to the brim with cold water and add 1/2 parsley bunch, 10-15 whole black peppercorns, and 2 bay leaves.
- Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Let simmer for about an hour (or longer if you want).
- Strain the stock. You can keep the veggies around to munch on if you want. You'll need 5 cups of this stock for the Avocado Soup. Store leftover stock in the fridge where it will keep for at least a few days, or in the freezer where it will keep for months.
