What is gazpacho? Well, gazpacho is a chilled soup that originated in Andalucía, Spain, and traditional recipes call for tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, garlic, olive oil, and more. You enjoy the soup cold, so there is no cooking involved, making it a great summer dish or light beginning to a multi-course meal. Although this avocado gazpacho is not entirely authentic, it does exhibit incredible depth of flavor and it’s almost like liquid guacamole.

This recipe is not only raw vegan, but it is also low-carb, paleo-friendly, keto-friendly, and replete with healthy fats. Slurp it out of a spoon or pour it into a cup so that you can drink it. We are not responsible if this refreshingly cold soup with powerful flavors kicks you into a pleasure-induced food coma. The great thing about this recipe is that you can tweak it until it is just right for your palate. Adjust the amount of onion, lime juice, chile, sea salt, and pepper to taste and then enjoy immediately.

This avocado gazpacho serves about four people, but you can divide it into much smaller portions as a party appetizer. Consider making a big batch and pouring it into shot glasses for a healthy swig of deliciousness. If you make it for a large gathering, make sure to do it right and top each shot glass with some fresh ingredients. Diced cucumbers, diced green onion, and diced avocado take the presentation to another level. Plus, you get more texture to contrast the creamy cold soup.
