While the term “Gazpacho” has become somewhat synonymous with that of “cold soup” made from a broad spectrum of vegetable and/or fruits, the soup originated in the Andalusian area of Spain, where it was made from a blend of stale bread, olive oil, garlic and water or vinegar, along with various vegetables.

As the summer is winding down, we thought, “What better way to use up those summer garden veggies than whipping up a quick batch of delicious Herbed Pichuberry Superfood Gazpacho!”
