Happy Memorial Day! Happy Meatless Monday! Sarah and I are so glad you joined us today! I know I complained about our freezing raining weather most of April and May but just like typical DC weather we headed right into summer with a few days of upper 80’s. When it gets that hot I am looking for something refreshing the light to eat. I found these gorgeous yellow tomatoes and decided to do a twist on a typical Gazpacho and came up with this delicious Sweet Summer Yellow Tomato, Corn & Pepper Gazpacho.
This soup requires no cooking at all and can be whipped up (literally in the blender) in just a few minutes, chilled and enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The sweet corn and sweet yellow peppers give it a delicious refreshing taste not to mention all the vitamins and good for you fiber.
Some people prefer a very smooth gazpacho soup and other like to enjoy it with a little texture. I used my Ninja blender which is amazing by the way and left a little texture to my soup. I like to pulse it until it reaches the desired texture instead of blending full on. (affiliate link)

Rachel says
I’m on the fence with gazpacho. I think my mom tried to make me eat it when I was too young to understand the concept so now it worries me. Haha! But I do like it sometimes so I’ll definitely give this a try.
Deborah Brooks says
Ok maybe time to try it again 🙂
Sarah says
Those tomatoes look so bright and beautiful!
I love this idea, especially since for the next few weeks I will have to be careful with what I eat and times I an only drink things or have very soft foods while I get the tooth that broke in half last week (swallowed the other half) fixed. Definitely adding this to the list.
Happy Meatless Memorial Day Monday my friend!
Deborah Brooks says
Ouch! That’s not good

The concept of gazpacho intrigues me. I think I’ve had it once, and it was pretty good, but it was more of an appetizer than a meal. This might be a nice summer lunch to add to the rotation.
Deborah Brooks says
It’s super easy to make and yes a great addition to lunch or a dinner side
Debbie says
I’m late to the party today! Happy Memorial Day! This looks so good. I love gazpacho, especially when the weather gets hot (which it will be here soon, 110 forecast for the weekend!!!).
Deborah Brooks says
Wow that is hot! Never too late to join us
