Dad's Gazpacho


We like ours a little chunkier and not as pureed as most - so bear that in mind as you prepare this summer treat!!! an easy dish to whip up for any size group - just increase ingredients proportionately. i grew up eating this - my dad made it all the time for many occassions!! thanks, dad!!! ****cook time is chill time. ;) on a side note - a little splash of white wine added to this doesn't hurt if you are of a mind to do so - we generally do!!

Steps
