Gazpacho

Here are two variations of a great summertime snack. Gazpacho is a cold soup. Combine all ingredients and refrigerate several hours. It's even better the next day. Mix and match the recipes using up whatever vegetables you have on hand. Add parmesan cheese as a garnish if desired. Each cup is about 25 calories.
