Ingredients:

  • 2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded, and chopped
  • 2 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and chopped
  • 1 small green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  • Start by peeling, seeding, and chopping the cucumbers. Place them in a large bowl.
  • Peel, pit, and chop the avocados, and add them to the bowl with the cucumbers.
  • Chop the green bell pepper and onion, and add them to the same bowl.
  • Mince the garlic and add it to the vegetable mixture.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped cucumbers, avocados, bell pepper, onion, and garlic.
  • Add the vegetable broth, lime juice, cilantro leaves, and olive oil to the blender.
  • Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the gazpacho is too thick, you can add more vegetable broth to reach your desired consistency.
  • Season the gazpacho with salt and pepper to taste. Blend again briefly to mix the seasonings.
  • Transfer the gazpacho to a large bowl or pitcher. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours, or until well chilled. Chilling the gazpacho allows the flavors to meld together.
  • Before serving, stir the gazpacho and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Pour the gazpacho into bowls and garnish with optional toppings such as diced cucumber, diced avocado, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges.
