Gazzzzpacho!
Not in the mood for hot soup this summer? Try this gazpacho recipe for a refreshing and nutrient packed treat!
You will need:
6 plum tomatoes
1 red bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
1 lrg cucumber
1 lrg leek
1 green serano chile
1 red chile
1/2 white onion
3 cloves garlic
Handful cilantro
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 cup tomato sauce/strained or pureed tomatoes*
1 1/2 cup vegetable broth*
Juice of 1 1/2 lemons
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp sriracha
2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
Roughly dice all the veggies and quickly pulse them separately in a blender or food processor. Don’t blend too long or they will turn mushy. You want a nice crunchy texture. In a large bowl, combine veggies and remaining ingredients. Refridgerate. Best if left overnight to marinate.
Serve chilled. Can garnish with sour cream, avocado, or a splash of good olive oil.
Enjoy! I did
