National Gazpacho Day | Zucchini Gazpacho

As gazpachos go, I expected zucchini gazpacho to be glorious. I love me some zoodles, love roasted and sauteed zucchini slices, and even have love up on raw zucchini salad [4].

This zucchini gazpacho has all the everything I would want in a cold soup. …except, unfortunately, it came out hideous. So ugly. A dirty green with chunks of red that never completly pureed, even when I thought it did. Stupid immersion blender. It’s so vomit-irific that I cannot post a picture here. It’s just not right, and it would hurt your eyes.

But, here’s the recipe anyway.

Happy National Gazpacho Day…?
