Minty Watermelon Gazpacho
- 5 cups Watermelon (peeled, diced, without seeds)
- 1/2 cup Bell peppers (diced)
- 1 Cucumber (medium, diced)
- 1 Tomato (medium, diced)
- 1 Onion (medium, peeled and diced)
- 5 pieces Fresh basil leaves
- 5 pieces Fresh mint leaves
- Juice of half lime
- 1/2 teaspoon Ground ginger
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Prepare vegetables. Peel and dice watermelon and onion. Dice tomato, bell pepper, and cucumber.
- Add all diced watermelon and half of the prepared vegetables to a blender and blend until smooth. We like to use a hand blender for the standard 4-serving batch.
- Add all seasoning (mint leaves, basil leaves, lime juice, ground ginger, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper) and blend again.
- Chill the soup overnight in the fridge to get a rich, matured taste. Although we did try it only after 2 hours of chilling and the soup was already lovely and refreshing.
- Serve them with the other half of the diced vegetables. You can garnish it with savory french toast, grilled cheese toast or just with a slice of bread sprinkled with olive oil and garlic paste.
