\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The posted RECIPE is an Award WINNER<\/a> and officially named Chilled Tomato and Cucumber Gazpacho<\/strong>.\u00a0 It’s not\u00a0a Mexican Shrimp Cocktail<\/a> silly — Duly advised, but\u00a0it reminds me of one.\u00a0 Either way, it may be the best I’ve had.\u00a0 It’s fresh tasting, flavorful and super easy to make.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Chilled Tomato and Cucumber Gazpacho<\/strong><\/p>\n

3 ripe Tomatoes, cored and cut into large cubes [I seeded them]<\/p>\n

1 Cucumber, peeled, seeded and cut into large cubes [I didn’t seed it; used an English Cucumber]<\/p>\n

1\/2 Green, Yellow or Orange Pepper (or tricolor combo), diced [I used half a Green, half an Orange]<\/p>\n

1\/2 Shallot, or 1 Tablespoon Red Onion, diced [Shallot]<\/p>\n

1\/2 cup Scallions, chopped<\/p>\n

Juice of 1 Lime<\/p>\n

1 T. Extra Virgin Olive Oil<\/p>\n

1 T. Worcestershire Sauce<\/p>\n

1\/2 t. Tabasco [or other hot pepper sauce, like Red Rooster, which I now like better–use 1 T.]<\/p>\n

1\/2 cup V-8 Juice [buy one small bottle at a liquor store; grocery stores only sell it by the case!]<\/p>\n

Lemon Pepper to taste<\/p>\n

Seasoned Salt to taste<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/span><\/p>\n

Combine all Soup ingredients in blender until well blended (ingredients will retain some pulp, which is great).\u00a0 Pour into chilled bowls and garnish as desired.\u00a0 Makes 1\/2 gallon–6 appetizer servings or 3 main dish servings.\u00a0 Tastes better if you make it the night before.<\/p>\n

Garnish (with one or more)<\/span><\/p>\n

1\/2 lb. chilled, cooked Shrimp [buy the fresh $10 Shrimp tray from Costco; scarf the leftovers with the Cocktail Sauce]<\/p>\n

1 chilled, sliced Avocado<\/p>\n

1 T. fresh Cilantro, chopped<\/p>\n

I recently made the same for a Holiday Party and everyone loved it well chilled in a cup.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
