Best Gazpacho Recipe Ever
I can't believe no one has reviewed this recipe. I would own a Vitamix just to make this. I love it. For me the additional cucumbers and chopped fresh tomatoes are not optional, and I use a little jalapeno pepper instead of hot sauce. It's better the next day.

Fantastic at the beach!
A spectacular recipe but at the beach try adding 1 small bottle of clam juice. Blend in short spurts so it's still just a bit crunchy. Then after all done would the add some cook kernels of corn and float some freshly steamed clams in bowls when serving. Note: I add the Tabasco in each bowl for those who like it on the bland side.

Fresh easy
I made this and it was super easy. I used a fresh Jalepo pepper instead of hot sauce. I also added some lime juice and an avocado. Added some pine nuts on top to finish it.

Too much vinegar for me!
Way too much vinegar in this recipe for my taste - my advice if you want to make this is to measure it out separately and add small amounts gradually until you like the taste!

Delicious and simple to make!
I make this recipe all the time to rave reviews! So easy to roughly chop vegetables and let Vitamix do all the rest! I use red bell pepper instead of green and throw in a jalapeno pepper.

Good Basic Recipe, Easy to play with
This makes a good gazpacho and then you can tweak it to needs and tastes easily. I have made it several different times with different ingredients ( such as red peppers instead of green, cilantro, basil, celery, some mushrooms, sometimes with what is at hand and in the garden). Use a good olive oil and enjoy!

Summer in a bowl!
Wonderful as written. I served with a skewer of grilled shrimp atop the Gazpacho.

This “gazpacho” recipe is a pale reflection
This may or may not make a tasty cold tomato-based soup, but the recipe in no way resembles an authentic gazpacho, which can best be described as luscious. The real deal is made with 100% fresh tomatoes and red pepper; it is thickened with a bit of dried crusty bread; the best gazpacho uses sherry vinegar. Many recipes use both some red and green peppers; but all red pepper is the most luscious. Do yourself a favor and make the real thing.
