Gaaaaaaaahzpacho! Wow, making this cold soup is so damn easy. I'm smacking myself for not trying it before. The hardest part is peeling the tomatoes.
a bunch of tomatoes (peeled with blanching method), chilled
fistful of cilantro
a hot pepper or two (the little thai ones are great)
an avocado
salt & pepper to taste
Put in a blender. Blend. Eat ASAP.
I don't do any of the "typical" crap like strain out the chunks or anything like that. Chunks rule. Also, my ingredient list is MUCH shorter than your typical recipe, but its what I had on hand. The avocado gives it a nice smoothness and some extra fat. Other recipes have you adding oil, but avocado is much better, IMO.
**word of warning.... because of the avocado, the soup takes on a less than pretty color (somewhere between nice red and pale grey-green). Just be warned....
