I’m kind of a gazpacho aficionado which means I’m both a fan and picky. Barbara Samuel O’Neal–who writes the most marvelous books–shared a recipe for watermelon gazpacho that sounded interesting, so I made it last night. Wow! It is absolutely delicious! It tastes like summer and freshness, and it’s totally healthy. It’s filled with watermelon (obviously), grape tomatoes, half an English cucumber, scallions, red pepper, lime juice, and a jalapeno pepper (optional but I like a little kick).

Note: It’s supposed to be garnished with cilantro which would make it much prettier but I forgot to buy the cilantro. Oops! It still tastes amazing. I can’t wait to eat more.

Any other gazpacho fans out there?
