Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Using a paring knife, score nonstem end of each tomato with shallow hatch mark. Blanch tomatoes in boiling water for 30 to 60 seconds, until skin peels easily. Transfer tomatoes to a bowl of ice water. Peel and halve them after they cool. Remove and discard most of the seeds, without wasting pulp.
- Place tomatoes in the jar of a blender, and add garlic and half of 1 jalapeno. Blend mixture, working in batches if necessary, until smooth. Season mixture with lime juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Transfer to refrigerator, and chill.
- Meanwhile, combine shallot, white wine, and 2 cups water in a large skillet. Bring mixture to a boil, and add mussels. Cover skillet, and let mussels cook until shells open, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer mussels from skillet to a bowl. Cool slightly, cover with plastic, and refrigerate.
- Return skillet to heat, and bring to a simmer. Add shrimp, and poach until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer shrimp from poaching liquid to a bowl, let cool slightly, and refrigerate.
- Dice the remaining 1 1/2 jalapeno peppers. Slice yellow cherry tomatoes in half.
- Adjust seasoning of chilled tomato puree with salt and pepper. Stir in chopped jalapenos, cucumbers, red onion, and sliced cherry tomatoes. Ladle soup into bowls. Divide seafood among bowls. Sprinkle each bowl with chopped cilantro, and serve.

Steps:
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over high heat, swirling to coat bottom of pan. Season shrimp with salt and pepper. Add shrimp and cook on both sides (may have to do it in batches).
- In a food processor, combine tomatoes, onion, garlic, cucumber and 1/2 the roasted peppers (here's where I also added crushed red chili flakes -- approx 1 tsp -- we like it spicy!) Process until well combined. Add tomato juice and vinegar; process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- To serve divide tomato mixture in bowls and top with shrimp and remaining roasted peppers. I also garnished with herbs from the garden, I used cilantro and a few garlic chives.
- Recipe is suppose to serve 4 -- maybe as a first course, but it served 2 large appetites as a main course tonight!

This refreshing salad is excellent for a summer cookout. Since you mix it ahead, the flavors have time to blend and there's no last minute fussing. My friends ask me to bing it every time we get together for a meal. -Teresa Fischer, Munster, Indiana
