Cooling Summer Gazpacho One-Step

Submitted by Gingerbee

"Linda was a busy lady-of-the-year, mother of two and embarking on a new career .. she had little time to do much of anything .. but she made a mean gazpacho and had time to entertain friends like me who'd stop by to say hi and stayed for lunch! This is a super easy, delicious soup that will cool down those hot summer nights! You'll beg for more :)"
