4-5 large tomatoes, cut up and diced
2 can(s) diced tomatoes (14 oz each)
1 large diced cucumber
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
1 medium jalapeno pepper, cleaned and diced
1 medium red onion, diced
2 clove garlic, minced
1 bottle V-8 (spicy, low sodium or any variety), 32 oz. juice or tomato juice
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar or sherry or wine vinegar if preferred
2 Tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
TOPPING INGREDIENTS (SUGGESTIONS)
sliced avocado
low-fat sour cream
pumpkin seeds
chopped cilantro
lime wedges for additional zing!

Steps:

  • 1. Put the ingredients in a large bowl and stir to combine.
  • 2. Place 1/2 the mixture in a blender and pulse until roughly chopped but not pureed. Do the same for the second half or if you like chunky, leave it and mix together with the blended mixture.
  • 3. Place in the refrigerator for at least half an hour to chill before serving.
  • 4. Top with your favorite topping and serve with grilled bread or croutons if preferred. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your gazpacho will be.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients before blending will help to create a smooth and refreshing soup.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your gazpacho. Choose a high-quality extra virgin olive oil.
  • Don't over-blend your soup: Over-blending will make your gazpacho too smooth and thick. Pulse your ingredients until they are just combined.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste your gazpacho before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed.

Conclusion:

Spicy gazpacho is a refreshing and flavorful soup that is perfect for a hot summer day. It is also a very healthy soup, as it is packed with vitamins and nutrients. If you are looking for a delicious and healthy way to cool down this summer, give spicy gazpacho a try. You won't be disappointed!
