Chilly Gazpacho Soup…Delicious for the Hot Days of Summer

Gazpacho’s a light, cool, refreshing soup from Spain. The Spanish call gazpacho, “Salad.” This uncooked vegetable soup is usually made from a pureed blend of fresh tomatoes, sweet peppers, onions, cucumbers, garlic, olive oil, vinegar and bread crumbs or soaked crumbled bread. There are so many ways to make it. It’s said that if you had thirty Spanish cooks in the kitchen, there’d be thirty different versions of gazpacho! We’re adding a quick step of sautéing the garlic first in olive oil before adding to the blender of veggies. This really enhances the fresh garlic flavor. We’re serving ours with a medley of chopped vegetables for garnish. You might be wondering why our gazpacho’s a blush color instead of a vivid red. It’s due to using yellow sweet peppers, which soften the color. With just 91 calories a cup, this first course soup is a delicious and simple way to get all your veggies in one fell swoop!
