Gorgeous Gazpacho

Gorgeous Gazpacho is a beautiful chilled soup from Spain and Portugal. Its made from raw vegetables with no cooking required. All you need is a blender for this recipe to be ready in minutes. Gazpacho is not a only a soup but also a perfect starter. The flavour when served chilled are amazing and they all compliment each other.

I like to serve mine with a little rocket and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil but also a few drops of pesto. They all combine perfectly for a refreshing, filling dish with an amazing taste. While this traditional a summer dish, I have served this throughout the year with no complaints.
