Gazpacho soup recipe

Ingredients

14.5 oz. Fire roasted tomatoes (or fresh ones)

2 Pickling cucumbers, peeled

1/2 Small onion

1 Red bell pepper

1/4 cup Olive oil

1 tablespoon Fresh basil

1 tablespoon Cilantro

1 tablespoon Fresh mint

1 teaspoon Fresh sage

1/4 teaspoon Red pepper flakes

1/2 teaspoon Salt

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

The juice of half of a lemon

Directions

Dump everything in the blender and blend away. Add vegetable stock if too thick. The protein part could be chicken cubes or tofu or cottage cheese.

I have to find a way to make it à la Scott. That means no cucumber, no bell pepper, no onion. It's so refreshing and would be so convenient on the boat. Wish me luck!

Make it à la you and bon appétit!

Update July 20, 2022 :

This time I used 4 unpeeled cucumbers, some lettuce, 1 pint of cherry tomatoes and some hummus. Cottage cheese for protein and delicious creaminess that complements very well the heartiness and spiciness of the soup. Use what you have on hand and stay cool!
