Enjoyed this gazpacho on a hot summer day and used bell peppers I had. Family liked it!
SO good and beyond easy! Made as written, it had too much sugar for my taste so I will reduce it in the future. But otherwise so flavorful, somehow light but filling, and great in the summer heat.
This hearty and robust soup or dip is perfect on a warm day It can also be thinned by adding some warmed milk or skim milk for a cold day soup My family loves it
bold and delicious cool on ahot summer day . light on the stomach . easy to digest. flavor, flavor and more..
I whipped up this gazpacho right after watching the episode. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to make and it really hit the spot on a hot summer day. I’m difinately adding this recipe to my permanent collection. I can’t wait to share it with my family & friends. This recipe was easy to substitute some ingredients or just add what you have on hand. I used some cucumber and carrot in addition to all the other ingredients. Awesome!
This came close to a soup I had in Spain. It was relatively easy and very impressive for guests. Did feel like it needed a little more flavor.
I have learned to always make this a day ahead to let the flavors meld and to make a double batch because it goes that fast. Excellent easy recipe
Trust me, an avowed carnivore for years and f-i-n-a-l-l-y, a cook in the form of Rachel Ray appeared on television with what looked like an intriguing recipe for red pepper gazpacho. Phenomenal! Now, am branching out and enjoying other vegetarian dishes that more than add life to what was once a very predictable schedule of cousine. Thank you Rachel!

THIS WAS GREAT WITH THE MEAL AND WE ARE STILL EATING ON IT WITH TORTILLA CHIPS AS A SNACK. I ADDED FRESH CILANTRO TO MY RECIPE AND IT WAS SO YUMMY.
I love the quick and easy method and I can use this for different ways.
