This dish is absolutely perfect for hot summer days and nights, with it’s refreshing flavors of cucumber, tomato and fresh herbs this soup is a great way to beat the heat. I took guidance from a recipe on About.com, but changed things up a little bit. Below is my adaptation.
Ingredients (3-4 servings):
1 Medium sized cucumber, sliced/chopped
3 Tomatoes, chopped
1 Red Bell Pepper, de-stemmed/seeded & chopped
2 Cloves Garlic
2 Tbsp. Lemon Juice
1/2 White Onion, chopped
3 Tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
1 tsp. Fresh Cilantro, minced
1 tsp. Fresh Basil, minced
A pinch of Cayenne Pepper
Salt & Pepper to taste
Directions:
Put all ingredients in a fairly large blender or food processor, put the softer ingredients at the bottom to have it puree more easily. Blend until completely smooth and chill in the refrigerator before serving. I garnished my gazpacho with a dab of plain cashew cream and it was delicious!
