I don’t know about you, but it has been so hot here in the Bay Area this summer. Many houses don’t have air conditioning (thank you, global warming), and the thought of using an oven or stove is unbearable.
If you haven’t tried a cold soup yet…what are you waiting for? You can blend flavors in cold soup just as easily as in hot soup!
This fun chilled soup recipe is refreshing and light…and the LA VICTORIA® mango habanero salsa adds a delicious hint of spice.

Add all of the ingredients, except the salsa, to your Vitamix. This is all you need to make this soup. Easy, right? Put everything in and blend for 20 seconds.
What kind of cucumbers are best?
It really doesn’t matter what kind of cucumber you use for this cold soup. I personally prefer Persian cucumbers because their seeds are soft and tiny, but regular cucumbers work just as well.
Is this soup served chunky or smooth?
You can serve this soup with small chunks or smooth and creamy. If you like your soup a little chunkier, blend for less time. For those who prefer a silky smooth soup, you can blend it for a longer time.
Put all of the ingredients into the blender and mix on high speed for 10 seconds, then pulse for 10 seconds, depending on how smooth or chunky you want your soup to turn out.

Notes
SPECIAL NOTE
Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn’t test, my rule of thumb is to add more flour if your dough or batter is wet and add more liquid if the dough or batter is too dry!

Love this gazpacho recipe! I’m gluten and dairy intolerant and also can’t eat bell peppers anymore, so this is perfect for me. I live in the East Bay and with hot weather it’s nice to have an easy meal with no cooking. You are my go to website for GF and the seafood recipes. I’m not much of a baker but I’ll try those eventually. I’ve also made a lot of your other recipes but usually the easy ones. Your recipes and instructions are so clear with great tips and notes. This weekend I’m trying your fried chicken recipe. Thank you so much for keeping me healthy, well fed and sane!
You made my day. This is definitely a great cold soup option if you can’t have peppers. I am so glad you are enjoying my recipes. Thank you!
Is it ok to make the day before? Will the avocado turn the soup brown?
Hi Diana, I would recommend making it the same day.
