    Tomato Gazpacho is a light, refreshing soup perfect for summer. A great way to use up your fresh summer tomatoes

    I've never been a huge tomato fan unlike everyone else in my family.

    Tomatoes are aplenty in our house every summer. I mean like buckets of tomatoes. These people {yes, I'm calling my family "these people"} aren't kidding around when it comes to their tomatoes.

    When we get together during the summer, usually at my grandparents' bay house, everyone brings tomatoes. It's a little insane (in my non-tomato loving opinion).

    Since I am surrounded by tomatoes I've just recently started enjoying a juicy, ripe, deep red, delicious summer tomato.

    I've had a revelation: A really good tomato is, in fact, really good, and now I know why everyone raves about summer tomatoes...

    In an effort to use some of the abundant tomatoes populating our household, I made this gazpacho.

    It's refreshing and light and great for lunch or as a first course at dinner.

    Even if you still aren't apart of the tomato loving camp, you'll enjoy this summer-time soup.
