Watermelon Gazpacho

Earlier in the summer, Mia spoiled me rotten with a day at Lake Austin Spa. Heavenly. Spending the day in a plush robe chillin’ lakeside between spa treatments was so completely out of my realm of reality that I’m still questioning if it was all a dream. Except for the lingering taste of the watermelon gazpacho we were served for lunch. That I can remember clear as day. I’ve tried several times to recreate the chilled, refreshing gazpacho and finally came up with a rendition that’s close. Although now that I think about it, maybe I should go back to the spa for the day. Just to make sure…

Watermelon Gazpacho

(inspired by The Lake Austin Spa)

 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed*

½ English (seedless) cucumber, peeled

¼ cup cilantro, roughly chopped

1 tablespoon red onion, chopped

½ cup tomato juice

1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

½ tablespoon jalapeno, minced (more or less depending on your heat preference!)

For garnish: freshly squeezed lime, feta cheese, cilantro

Place all ingredients in a Vita-Mix or food processor. Blend until smooth. Serve in chilled glasses and garnish with lime, feta and cilantro.

*Note: Add tiny bits of diced watermelon to the blended gazpacho for texture. For a sweeter gazpacho, cube watermelon the night before and store in a tupperware container. Add the additional watermelon juice to the blender and proceed with recipe as directed.

    Leaving the Pacific Northwest today where the warmest day was 68* maybe there will be some Watermelon Soup waiting to abate the heat! Thank you for the recipe!

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!
