Serve this cold soup as a first course, a light entree, or lunch dish. A great way to use home grown veggies! Ingredients:
3 large very ripe tomatoes, cored, seeded, and cut up |
2 medium cucumbers, seeded and cut up |
2 medium orange sweet bell pepper, seeded and cut up |
1 jalapeno, seeded and cut up |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/3 cup lime juice |
2 tablespoons honey |
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves |
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger |
1/4 teaspoon sea salt |
ice cube |
lime wedges and green onion |
v- 8 juice (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl combine tomatoes, cucumber, orange sweet peppers, jalapeño, and garlic. In a food processor process mixture, half at a time, with several on/off turns until you have large chunks. Place all of the mixture in the food processor bowl. Add lime juice, honey, cilantro, ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt. Cover and process with several on/off turns until the mixture is just a little chunky. If desired, season to taste with additional sea salt.
