Gazpacho is a famous Spanish summer soup. Originally considered a poor man's dish, peasants prepared it with vinegar, water, bread, olive oil, and garlic. Later, tomatoes and other vegetables were added to the soup, and from being a poor man's soup, it became a traditional Spanish dish, even served at royal receptions. The main advantage of gazpacho is that it doesn't require cooking, thus preserving all its beneficial properties. It's ready in just a few minutes, simply by blending all the ingredients. This Spanish soup is served chilled, making it a perfect choice for those hot summer days.

Make a unique version of gazpacho by replacing some of the tomatoes with watermelon pulp.
