Here is a great summertime dish.Don't let all the ingredients scare you, it is really easy, everything in one bowl.
3 cups chopped fresh tomatoes, ( I used plum about five medium )
1 cup peeled and seeded chopped cucumber, to seed the cucumber peel and slice length wise and scrape seeds out with a spoon.
by the way every thing is chopped!!
1/2 red pepper
1/2 yellow pepper
2/3 cup sweet onion
1/2 cup celery
1/2 tbl of olive oil
1/2 tbl bottled horseadish
1/2tbl of balsamic vinegar
1/2 tbl of rice vinegar
2-3 cups of low sodium tomato juice or vegetable juice
1 clover crushed garlic
salt and pepper to taste
Put all these ingredients in a large bowl stir, cover and let sit in fridge at least 2 hours.
you make it the night before if you want.
Make sure to taste it before putting in the fridge, you may want a little more vinegar or even horseradish.
Always taste your food before serving it!!
When you are ready to serve the Gazpacho have some Greek plain yogurt, cut up avocado, and
chopped cilantro.
Serve in bowls with a some yogurt, avocado and cilantro on top.(hint squeeze a little lime juice over the Gazpacho, it really perks it up. if you like a little cut up a fresh jalapeno.
Some tortilla chips are good with it also.
I am also making some pan fried Telapia with the Gazpacho.
Now it is a complete dinner!!

Per serving 133 calories, it makes about 4-6 servings
I really love this!!
