Cheater'S Gazpacho
- 1 14 oz can of diced Italian style tomatoes with their juices
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 medium seedless (hothouse, or English) cucumber, roughly chopped
- 3 scallions, white and pale green parts roughly chopped and dark green ends sliced and reserved
- 2 tablespoons sherry or rice wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup fresh dill
- 1/4 cup fresh flat leaf parsley
- good extra virgin olive oil, preferably Spanish, for drizzling
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- diced avocado for garnish, optional
- Place all ingredients except the scallion greens and the olive oil in the bowl of a food processor and blitz to combine, leaving as chunky as you like it. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour. When ready to serve, garnish with scallion greens, a drizzle of olive oil, and if desired chunks of fresh avocado flaked with a bit of salt. Pretend you are on a plaza in Madrid enjoying this soup in the summer with a Tinto de Verano. Enjoy :)
