Julia’s Vegan Yellow Pepper Gazpacho Soup
My client Julia shared this deliciously healthy yellow pepper Gazpacho soup recipe with me. I told her that it just might end up on my blog and here it is. My mom used to make Gazpacho when I was a child. Maybe I was a strange child but I loved cold soup. Try some of the other soup recipes on my website.
What is Gazpacho?
Originating from the Andalusia region of southern Spain, Gazpacho is traditionally made from a mixture of puréed tomatoes and other ingredients such as cucumber, sweet bell peppers, onions, garlic, and olive oil. Its is a soup that is served cold and not hot. It’s very refreshing especially during the summer months. Have you ever made a cold soup before? You can also make fruit based Gazpacho soups. Really the possibilities are endless and only limited to your culinary imagination.

I’ve made this soup a few times now, and I have to say, it’s the best! The recipe is simple and easy to follow. It takes a little time, but it’s worth the wait. The soup comes out rich with flavor and not too heavy on the stomach.
