I love gazpacho and I decided to make a green version as part of my green cooking project. Chilled soup is so refreshing and delicious. This was perfect on a sunny day, enjoyed al fresco in the garden. This is packed full of healthy green veggies - I’ve been getting creative on the kitchen and this is my perfect combination.

Steps

1

Chop the cucumber (you can remove some of the seeds) crush the garlic and remove the stone from the avocado and add a handful of watercress. Blitz until smooth. Add a little coconut yogurt and olive oil and blitz again (just a little at a time) until you get the desired consistency.
2

Chill the soup or add some ice cubes (see my herb and edible flower ice cubes which would be perfect!)
3

Serve in bowls and garnish with green veg and a delicious of olive oil.

@rachel_madewithplantsI love to cook vegan, seasonal, plant-based dishes. For me, cooking is fun and I particularly love a challenge! I’ve always loved to cook, but it wasn’t until I became vegan that I became really excited about creating recipes. I realised that the old cooking ‘rules’ were not rules at all and you can be as creative and imaginative with food as you like; I’m a true veg lover and I’m known for trying to ‘veganise’ anything and everything 🌱
