Avocado gazpacho

I love traditional tomato gazpacho and I have a special love for aguacates or avocados, hence this recipe. I can just eat avocados as a snack with a sprinkle of salt on top, and I always have them in my house. I was trying to make something different with them and that is how this recipe came to mind.

This Avocado Gazpacho is a terrific appetizer for summer parties.

Buen provecho!

Ingredients
(6 servings)

2 small avocados, peeled and diced
1/3 cup green bell pepper, diced
3 cups cucumber, peeled and diced
Salt and pepper
2 teaspoons lime juice
2 tablespoons cilantro
1 cup water
1/4 cup white vinegar

Avocado-Cucumber Gazpacho

Directions

1. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until you have a smooth mixture.

2. Adjust seasoning and transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until very cold, at least 1 hour.

3. To serve, divide the gazpacho in bowls or cups and garnish with cucumber and red pepper.

I tried tonight, It has a very strong flavor and is very tasty. I little overwelming. It is good in moderation not a big heaping bowl. may be like 4 to 6oz per serving. I poured myself about 12 and it was to much. Must be really cold!
