Day 2 : Gazpacho

No, you didn't miss a day. Day 1 of my "I couldn't make it to the supermarket, oh God I hope the farmstand has nice stuff this week" week (ICMITTSOGIHTFHNSTW for short - ha!) involved a dinner made of sausage from the fridge and corn from the farmstand. Yummy, but not blog-worthy.

Today was Day 2 and was more interesting. I came home and made gazpacho. Easy and fast. We had it with toast (bread from the freezer) and goat cheese (from the fridge).

Super-Quick Gazpacho

• 3-4 large tomatoes, cored and cut into large chunks
• 1 cucumber, sliced
• 1 bell pepper, seeded and cut into large pieces
• 1 clove garlic
• handful of almonds or a small handful of almond meal
• squeeze of lemon or lime juice
• salt and pepper to taste

Put everything into the blender (you may need to do this in 2 batches) and blend until pureed. Check seasoning. Serve drizzled with extra virgin olive oil.

If you have time and have planned ahead: Garnish with chopped tomatoes, herbs, cooked shrimp or chicken, etc.
