Our refreshing and savoury green gazpacho soup is full of zingy and flavoursome ingredients like peppers, cucumber, avocado, green chilli and lime. If you've never tried a traditional gazpacho soup before then this is a great version to try.
Gazpacho soup is widely eaten in Spain and Portugal and the original recipe uses tomatoes, cucumber, olive oil and bread (kind of like a fresh, Mediterranean salad, whizzed up into a soup). Don't let this put you off though as it's incredibly smooth and full of fresh summer flavours and when seasoned well it is such a great entrée before fresh seafood or grilled meats.
If you're veggie, you can leave the prawn garnish out or swap it for a caper berry or crispy herbed croutons.
1 Tbsp. finely chopped chives, plus extra to garnish
3 Tbsp. natural yogurt
