Watermelon Gazpacho

Calling all soup lovers, or non-lovers

Have you tried gazpacho this summer?  I sure hope so.

A few years ago I started making gazpacho and I’ve since become obsessed. The best part about Gazpacho (in my humble opinion) are the medley of flavors that BURST in your mouth, the texture of the soup, and the fact that it’s served COLD.  It’s perfect as a summertime side and seriously can’t be any easier to make.

So, maybe you’ve avoided it because of the quirky name?

Maybe you’re not into chilled soups?

I promise this recipe for Watermelon Gazpacho will change your mind.  It’s got the right blend of  fruity watermelon flavors with some spicy, tangy, zing!

Enjoy:
