Gazpacho Ahumado

This is a simple gazpacho made with chipotle peppers, a smoked chili pepper in a spicy tomato sauce. Though I add no salt the peppers have about 280 mg of sodium so the recipe is not salt free. Chipotle peppers also can be bought dried though I haven't tried them with this recipe.
