Gazpacho

Summer is finally here where I live and it is so awesome!!!

This recipe is quick, easy, tasty and good on those hot days when you don’t feel like much at dinner, or you can even use as a starter or side dish.

I must admit though, there is nothing like a Southern Ontario summer tomato, but for now these will do.

Recipe

–  3 ripe Tomatoes ( I used regular ones here, Roma’s are nice as well)

–  1/2 Onion

–  1/2 red Pepper

–  2 stalks Celery

–  2 cloves Garlic

–  juice of 1 Lemon

– Salt & Pepper to taste

–  1/4 cup Parsley

–  1 tbsp Olive oil

Optional Hot Sauce & Wortcestershire – to taste

Put all ingredients in the processor chopped up first (big chunks is fine) process until the consistency you like it ( this one didn’t have chunks in it, it was somewhat smooth but not too smooth)

Garnish with chopped Cilantro, Green Onion & Avocado (if deseired)

This serves 2 good size bowls or 4 smaller ones.

Enjoy!!
