For me, Gazpacho holds a special place in my heart.
There are some foods that evoke emotion and this is one of them for me.
Had a great day with my kid! Visited our local “every 3rd weekend antique market” just becuz….
I truly believe Grammy gave us the gift of gab…we couldn’t walk by a booth without engaging the vendor. My kid scored a cast iron tea pot and bartered for a leather vintage bag (90 minute massage = $90 leather bag)!
While we were so very close to ordering funnel cakes from the food window….we pulled back. “Let’s make a healthy lunch.” Gazpacho won hands down and we made it in a blender with zero cooking.
Soup Ingredients…go into the blender and get happy…witness the tomato tornado!!
Chill the gazpacho soup in fridge or freezer. Serve with a fine diced veggie topping…thin sliced then diced zucchini, red onion, radish, Fresno pepper.
I thought this was just for show…but no, this really, REALLY makes the dish (thanks kid for pointing that out).
Deliciously Summer….and Crazy Good!! So many fresh ingredients bursting with bright flavors!
