Gazpacho

Submitted by Tanya Schaad

"Wonderful low fat summer lunch when it's too hot to cook. Very nice with pieces of crusty bread or toasted wheat bread. You can use green bell pepper instead of the red, but the red gives it a little something interesting and great color."

I made this for my spanish themed dinner party and it went over really well. It was very refreshing and spicy at the same time.
