Light and Fresh Mexican Gazpacho image

I got this recipe from a coworker from Mexico. Since I live in the southwest, I make this recipe year round at work, but it is demanded in summer! My customers and anyone else who tries this loves it! You can add small shrimp to make this a main course or serve as a light lunch or appetizer. Keeps refrigerated for 1 week.

This gazpacho was a bit too watery for my taste. I think it would have been better if it had been thicker.

I thought this gazpacho was just average. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This gazpacho was okay, but I've definitely had better. The flavors were a bit muddled and the soup was too thick.
