Strawberries add a fresh, fruity twist to this classic chilled soup. If you wish, choose your favorite herb to sprinkle on as a garnish and to boost the flavor. We recommend chives, basil, or thyme leaves, but many fresh herbs will complement this Strawberry Gazpacho.

  • 1 lb. fresh strawberries hulled
  • 1 medium cucumber peeled and cut into chunks (1½ cups)
  • 1 medium tomato cut into chunks (1 cup)
  • 1 medium red bell pepper cut into chunks (1 cup)
  • ½ of an onion chopped (¼ cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic

  • 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
