Refreshing Summertime Gazpacho

Today, I’m excited to share a light and refreshing gazpacho recipe perfect for those hot summer days when you want something cool and satisfying. This dish is a favorite in my household during the summer months, and I hope it brings a burst of fresh flavors to your table as well.

Ingredients:

  • 5 large ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • 1 cucumber, peeled and diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup of olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin
  • Handful of fresh herbs (such as basil, parsley, or cilantro) for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • blender
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • large bowl

To start, place the tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, and garlic in a blender. Blend until smooth, then transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, black pepper, and cumin.

Chill the gazpacho in the refrigerator for at least an hour to let the flavors meld together. When ready to serve, ladle the gazpacho into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs.

This gazpacho is perfect for a light lunch or as a refreshing starter for a summer dinner party. The cool, tangy flavors of the vegetables combined with the aromatic herbs make for a delightful dish that will keep you coming back for more.

Serving:

This recipe makes approximately 4 servings.

One serving weighs around 300 grams.

Each serving has an estimated calorie count of 150 calories.

Clever Tip:

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a splash of fresh lemon juice or a drizzle of balsamic glaze before serving. The acidity will elevate the taste of the gazpacho and leave your taste buds wanting more.

I encourage you to give this refreshing summertime gazpacho a try and feel free to get creative with the ingredients. Add some diced avocado or a sprinkle of feta cheese for a unique twist. Enjoy!
