This colorful soup is very easy to make and would make a great first course for a summer party. There are many variations, but this is a traditional Gazpacho.
Ingredients
(4- 6 Servings)
3 cups very ripe tomatoes
1 ½ cups cucumber peeled and diced
1 garlic clove chopped
½ cup green pepper, seeded and diced
½ cup red pepper, seeded and diced
½ cup water
¼ cup sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon salt or more if you like
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons red pepper, seeded and finely chopped (for garnish)
2 tablespoons cucumber, finely chopped (for garnish)
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 3 hours.
3. To serve, divide the gazpacho in bowls or cups and garnish with cucumber and red pepper.

I’ve never made cold soup but like it. This looks delicious.
I adore Gazpacho – I love your presentation in that gorgeous glass!
This is in my to do list during summer. Gorgeous!
MMMM…your soup looks great! yummie!
I love gazpacho! Your recipe is very similar to mine, but instead of a garnish of veggies, I like to use fresh garlicky croutons. I can’t wait until the tomatoes are in season so I can make some!
I like gazpacho a lot. I have a great recipe that I use each summer. I think I will add this recipe to the collection too. Gazpacho is easy to prepare, low in calories and is so healthy too.
a summer favorite in our house! I could eat gazpacho everyday and be perfectly happy.
