AVOCADO AND HEIRLOOM TOMATO GAZPACHO
Gazpacho is like salsa's big sister (many of the ingredients are the same), but "gazpacho" is much more fun to say. For a twist on textures, I leave a small portion of the soup in chunky, diced pieces and blend the rest with creamy avocado until velvety smooth.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the bell peppers, cucumber, shallot, garlic, tomatoes, parsley, lime juice, hot sauce, vinegar, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Measure 1/2 cup of this mixture and set aside.
- In a blender, pulse the remaining veggies with the avocado until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. For a more acidic soup, add another dash of vinegar.
- Refrigerate for several hours before serving. Top each portion of soup with a spoonful of the reserved chopped veggies and a dollop of Greek yogurt.
BEST GAZPACHO
More of a drink than a soup, served in frosted glasses or chilled tumblers, gazpacho is perfect when it is too hot to eat but you need cold, salt and lunch all at the same time. Gazpacho is everywhere in Seville, Spain, where this recipe comes from, but it's not the watered-down salsa or grainy vegetable purée often served in the United States. This version has no bread and is a creamy orange-pink rather than a lipstick red. That is because a large quantity of olive oil is required for making delicious gazpacho, rather than take-it-or-leave it gazpacho. The emulsion of red tomato juice, palest green cucumber juice and golden olive oil produces the right color and a smooth, almost fluffy texture.

Steps:
- Combine tomatoes, pepper, cucumber, onion and garlic in a blender or, if using a hand blender, in a deep bowl. (If necessary, work in batches.) Blend at high speed until very smooth, at least 2 minutes, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula.
- With the motor running, add the vinegar and 2 teaspoons salt. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil. The mixture will turn bright orange or dark pink and become smooth and emulsified, like a salad dressing. If it still seems watery, drizzle in more olive oil until texture is creamy.
- Strain the mixture through a strainer or a food mill, pushing all the liquid through with a spatula or the back of a ladle. Discard the solids. Transfer to a large pitcher (preferably glass) and chill until very cold, at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, adjust the seasonings with salt and vinegar. If soup is very thick, stir in a few tablespoons ice water. Serve in glasses, over ice if desired, or in a bowl. A few drops of olive oil on top are a nice touch.

CUCUMBER-AVOCADO GAZPACHO
I love this recipe when I'd like a cold soup but need a break from classic Spanish tomato-based gazpacho. Avocado is a nontraditional ingredient for gazpacho, but it makes a creamy and refreshing base when blended with almonds and cooling cucumber. I add lots of fresh herbs to brighten everything up. Give it a try and save those tomatoes for sauce!

Steps:
- Halve and pit 1 of the avocados and scoop the flesh into a blender. Add the quartered cucumbers, the basil, half of the mint, the 1/4 cup almonds, shallot, oil, lemon juice, vinegar, honey and water. Blend until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve or serve immediately (see Cook's Note).
- When ready to serve, halve, pit and peel the remaining avocado and thinly slice the flesh. Divide the soup among 4 bowls. Garnish with the cucumber rounds, sliced avocado, the remaining 2 tablespoons mint and remaining 2 tablespoons almonds.

Steps:
- Reserve one-quarter of the tomato, two cucumber chunks, two avocado chunks, and one basil leaf. Combine and finely chop for garnish.
- Stem and seed the jalapeño half and reserve the seeds. Cut the jalapeño into several pieces. Combine one or two pieces of the jalapeño with the remaining tomato, cucumber, avocado, and basil and the watercress or spinach, celery, garlic, red wine vinegar, honey, and ice cubes in a blender or the bowl of a food processor; puree until smooth. Add 1/4 cup or more water to thin the mixture, if necessary.
- Taste and season with salt, pepper, and more vinegar, if needed. If you want the soup spicier, add more of the jalapeño, a little at a time, as well as some of the seeds if desired, blending and tasting after each addition. Refrigerate until cold, then pour into a bowl and top with the reserved chopped tomato, cucumber, avocado, and basil and a drizzle of olive oil, and eat.

- Blanch the peas. Bring some water to a boil in a saucepan. Prepare an ice bath (a large bowl of ice water). Add the shelled peas to the boiling water. Wait for the water to return to a boil, then set a timer for 90 seconds. Immediately after, transfer the blanched peas to the ice bath to stop cooking and cool down. Once the peas are cold, drain them.1. NOTE: you can also steam the peas in the microwave. Simply add 2-3 tablespoons of water to a microwave-safe container, add the peas, cover, and microwave on high. Check every 2 minutes for doneness.2. NOTE: If using frozen peas, you need to defrost them but no need to blanch them.
- Add the blanched and drained peas to a blender. Add the avocado flesh, olive oil, Serrano pepper, shallot, cucumber, cilantro, lime juice, 1 1/2 cups (360 mL) water, and coconut milk. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. If it’s too thick, add the remaining 1/2 cup (120 mL) water to thin out.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add more lime juice for acidity or more cilantro for pungency. Taste again, and add more salt or pepper as needed.
- Serve immediately at room temperature, or transfer to the fridge to serve chilled. This gazpacho is best on the day it’s made, but you can store leftovers in an airtight container for 1-2 days (the avocado will start to go bad afterwards).
