Gazpacho

It's been super hot here, so a gazpacho was definitely in order for a light supper.  In case you don't know, gazpacho is a tomato based soup, served cold usually in the summer.  You can add croutons and cheese as you serve it.  Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-about 2 lbs ripe tomatoes (any kind you like), roughly chopped
-1 English cucumber, peeled and roughly chopped
-1 clove garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
-1 small onion, peeled and roughly chopped
-salt and pepper
-1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
-2 Tbs red wine vinegar
Directions:
Add the vegetables to a large bowl.  Season with salt and pepper and toss well.  Add them to blender and puree until nice and smooth.  While blending, add the oil and vinegar.  Pour mixture into bowl, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to blend well.  Enjoy!
