COOKING WITH CAITLIN'S Gazpacho

I think that gazpacho is quite the refreshing soup option--especially in the summer. It goes well with a simple sandwich as well as something a little fancier and off the grill. Not only that, but it is actually pretty healthy for you as well--gazpacho is made up of all kinds of different veggies.

The salad was a little dry after mixing everything together, but I added a fat free italian dressing mix made with light evoo and it was perfect! Thanks for the idea! And my guests loved it! - 7/27/09
