GF Vegan Green Gazpacho With Avocado & Peas

July 29, 2020
What could be best on a hot summer day than a cold yet filling soup? Gazpacho is a cold soup made of raw, blended veggies and full of flavors, originates from the southern regions of Iberia. There are lots of variations of it (check my watermelon gazpacho recipe from last summer) but you can make your own version using your most loved veggies.

This soup is also perfect to boost your immune system with the garlic, spinach, yogurt, chili flakes, basil and extra added fresh lemon juice. The veggies are full of minerals and vitamins that also help you to support during these harder times, and keep you healthy.

Directions

1. Chop the avocado, onion, garlic and cucumber into chunks and add to the blender along with the peas, spinach, soy yogurt, herbs, chili flakes and water. Process the mixture until smooth. Then taste and adjust seasoning and acidity with lemon juice.

2. Pass soup through a sieve, pressing with the back of a spoon to release as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.

3. Refrigerate the soup for 2 or 3 hours to allow all the flavors to mingle.

4. To serve, pour the chilled soup into small cups and set on a tray filled with ice, garnish with cucumber or tomato chunks.
