Gazpacho

Gazpacho is a Traditional Spanish soup that is made with the freshest ingredients and served cold. The classic version calls for red tomatoes and red bell peppers that give it it’s rich dark color. This twist calls for yellow tomatoes! Find them fresh and local for a sweeter taste. Thank you Carol from our Evexia Community for sharing this delicious recipe.
