Ingredients  

  • 1 hothouse cucumber, halved and seeded (not peeled)
  • 2 red bell peppers, cored and seeded
  • 4 plum tomatoes
  • 1 medium red onion
  • 3 cups tomato juice
  • 3 garlic cloves, very finely minced
  • 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Chopped hard-boiled eggs, for garnish (optional)

Instructions 

  • Roughly chop the cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes and red onions.
  • Blend each ingredient individually in a food processor until puréed, transferring the puréed ingredients into a large bowl. (Be careful not to over-process the ingredients or the gazpacho will be too thin.)
  • Add the tomato juice, garlic, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to the bowl with the puréed veggies, stirring until well combined. Cover the gazpacho and refrigerate it until chilled.
  • Once the gazpacho is chilled, serve it topped with chopped hard-boiled eggs (optional).
