We do love soups around here, & gazpacho is one of our favorites! Thoroughly enjoyed yours, & I know it will taste even better come summer & we will have some wonderfully home-grown tomatoes & cucumbers! The only change I made was to use a bit of lemon pepper instead of the indicated pepper! Many thanks for sharing the recipe! {Made & reviewed in 1-2-3 Hits recipe tag]

Man, this was one of the best gazpachos I've ever had!!! The green olives really added something to it, and the cracked black pepper gave it some unexpected slight heat. Amazing. I added a dollop of light sour cream and a bit of cilantro to mine and it didn't take away from the fresh flavor one bit. Thanks for posting! Made for ZWT8.
