Steps:
- Place the unpeeled garlic cloves in a small skillet over medium heat; cook, turning occasionally, until soft and blackened in spots, about 10 to 15 minutes. Cool, then remove skins (they should slip right off) and scrape off any char.
- Add the peeled roasted garlic to the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade; pulse, scraping down sides as necessary, until garlic is finely puréed. Add the chopped tomatoes and pulse until coarsely chopped. Do not overmix; the soup should be slightly chunky. Transfer the tomato mixture to an extra large bowl. Add the red bell peppers and cucumbers to the food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped; add to the bowl with the tomato mixture. Stir in the tomato juice, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper and Tabasco. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Cover the bowl with saran wrap and chill until ready to serve. The longer it sits, the better it tastes. Serve cold.

Steps:
- Char the tomatoes, peppers, onion, and two of the garlic cloves using your preferred method (roasting under the broiler, on a gas stove, or on a grill). Don't burn too much -- you'll be using the skin in the recipe for the smoky flavor.
- Cut the tomatoes into chunks and remove the core if it's too fibrous.
- Cut the bell peppers into chunks and remove the seeds.
- Remove the jalapeño seeds if you don't want this to be too spicy. (I keep them!)
- Cut the onion into chunks.
- Add all of the charred vegetables into a blender, along with the peeled cucumber, one clove of raw garlic, the parsley and cilantro.
- Pulse a couple of times, then add the cold water, sherry vinegar, lemon juice, and spices.
- Blend on high and as blending, slowly add the olive oil.
- Taste and if necessary add more cold water, olive oil, lemon juice or seasoning.
- Chill in the fridge until ice cold.
- Enjoy topped with some additional diced cucumber, and homemade croutons (both optional!).

Steps:
- For the veggies: Heat the grill to 400 degrees F.
- Brush oil on the scallions, tomatillos and zucchini, then sprinkle them with salt and place over the direct heat of the grill. Cook, rotating or flipping occasionally, until everything chars and the tomatillos soften a bit, about 5 minutes.
- Blend and chill soup: Combine the scallions, tomatillos and zucchini in a blender, along with the yogurt, basil, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice and a nice pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. If the consistency is too thick, add a handful of crushed ice and blend; this should fix it! Taste and season with salt, then taste again. Refrigerate at least four hours or up to overnight.
- Serve. Mix the yogurt and honey in a small bowl. Serve the soup in bowls and drizzle with the yogurt mixture, and a shake or two of the hot sauce.
ROASTED VEGETABLE GAZPACHO
For this recipe you will need roasted vegetable broth. I have published one such recipe (recipe#415106). With this broth plus more vegetables that this recipe calls for, you will have a very healthy, very delicious hot weather soup. However you can use regular vegetable broth such as is available in the supermarket if you wish. Gazpachos may be blended smooth as this one is, or chunky with chopped vegetables. You may wish to reserve some of the roasted veggies to add and give texture to the soup. Gazpachos also have a picante taste. You may wish to "doctor" this soup up to meet your expectations. This soup is so tasty because roasting brings out the best in veggies. Enjoy!

ROASTED VEGETABLE GAZPACHO
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425° F.
- Place the zucchini, onion, tomatoes, jalapeno, and garlic in a large cast-iron skillet (we used a 15" skillet - you could also use two smaller skillets or a sheet pan).
- Drizzle the vegetables with the avocado oil. Transfer to the oven and bake for 25 minutes. Turn the broiler to high and roast for 5 minutes until a char starts to form.
- Transfer the vegetables to a blender and puree until smooth. Pulse in the Pacific Foods Organic Chicken Bone Broth, olive oil, and red wine vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Chill for at least 8 hours.
- Divide the gazpacho between bowls and top with sliced cucumber, cilantro, and sliced chili peppers. Garnish with flaky sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right vegetables: Use a variety of vegetables that will roast well, such as tomatoes, peppers, onions, and zucchini. You can also add other vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or fennel.
- Roast the vegetables properly: Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will give them a deep, rich flavor.
- Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is an essential ingredient in gazpacho. Make sure to use a good quality olive oil that has a fruity, peppery flavor.
- Chill the gazpacho before serving: Gazpacho is best served cold. Chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Garnish the gazpacho with fresh herbs: Garnish the gazpacho with fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or cilantro. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
