Yellow Gazpacho with Roasted Squash

Yellow Gazpacho with Roasted Squash

It was bright and sunny all day but right when as I got my camera out to take these pics the sky turned dark grey and we got a major downpour. It was much needed for our little tomato and basil plants but made for a stop and go photoshoot. Mark is typically not a fan of cold soups and I was pretty sure I’d would be eating this gazpacho solo. I gave him a bowl to try and watched him cautiously take a sip. I turned away to snap a couple more pics and looked back to see Mark standing there with a nearly empty bowl! His words: best gazpacho ever. I’m not sure if this even technically qualifies as gazpacho since the squash is roasted and it’s not all raw but I’m thinking the savory smokey flavor is what got him hooked. So here’s to a bowl of sunshine in your belly! Have a good weekend friends!

    Ooh, I really like the sounds of this soup. It’s a great summer-to-fall transition soup as well since it’s not all raw. Thanks for a great recipe Grace!
