{Recipe} Watermelon tomato gazpacho

gazpacho

Gazpacho is cold soup, typically tomato based with lots of veggies that originated in Spain. It is one of my favourite soups to order at restaurants in the summer and to make at home.

Many of the watermelon gazpachos I have had before were too sweet, and reminded me of drinking watermelon juice, rather than soup. This version had the familiar tomato gazpacho taste with refreshing watermelon.

The ingredients can be found readily at home and can be whipped up in less than 15 minutes.
