Ingredients
1 lb Strawberries, hulled
8 Cherry tomatoes
½ Cucumber, peeled and seeded
¼ Red bell pepper, seeds removed
¼ cup Red onion, chopped
½ tablespoon Fresh mint leaves
1 Jalapeño, seeds removed (optional)
1 teaspoon Honey
1 cup Plain low-fat yogurt
to taste Salt
to taste Black pepper
as needed Fresh mint sprigs for garnish
Directions
Combine the hulled strawberries, halved cherry tomatoes, peeled and seeded cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, fresh mint leaves, optional jalapeño, honey, and plain low-fat yogurt in a blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture reaches a completely smooth consistency, about 1-2 minutes.
Taste the gazpacho and season with salt and black pepper to your preference.
Transfer the gazpacho to a covered container and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours until thoroughly chilled.
Pour into serving bowls and garnish each portion with a fresh mint sprig. Add an additional dollop of plain yogurt on top if desired.
Comments
All ingredients are available year-round at any Charlotte grocer—strawberries and tomatoes may cost more out of season, but no special trip is needed. The stated 190 minutes is misleading; actual hands-on work is 20–30 minutes for chopping and blending, with 2–3 hours of chilling factored in, so clarify that most time is passive. Cost per serving runs $2.50–$3.50 depending on berry and yogurt prices, making it budget-friendly for a cold summer lunch. This reheats poorly and is best eaten the same day, and it demands no stovetop attention, so it works well for warm-weather meal prep when you want something light and not fussy.
