Gazpacho is a chilled soup that is especially satisfying on a hot summer day. It is naturally high in vitamins and minerals and low in carbohydrates. This entire low carb recipe has about 200 calories, not counting the avocado.
Ingredients:
1 cup finely diced peeled cucumber
1 cup finely chopped green peppers
1 cup finely diced, seeded tomato
1 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup minced onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh flat leaf parsley
2 cups tomato juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce or more to taste
Zest, minced and juice from a lemon
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
Pinch of cayenne
Salt and pepper to taste
Diced avocado
Directions:
Mix all the vegetables, parsley, tomato juice, lemon zest and juice, and all the seasonings in a large bowl. Refrigerate for a couple of hours or overnight to develop the flavors. Serve chilled, garnished with diced avocado.
