  • “I made this like the recipe says, only I added more garlic, and I used fresh dill. I then cut up more tomatoes and cukes, diced some zucchini and celery, and served it as a soup. Served it well chilled. It was excellent!! Very good for the hot days of summer! Thanks, Dorothy!”

  • “This was yummy!I made it just as directed except I used tomato juice that was salt-free to lower the sodium.I am pregnant and this was a great breakfast drink for me.You can just taste the vitamins you are getting.I’ll definately make this again.I also liked the idea of serving it as a cold soup.”

  • “I love gazpacho and this is my new favorte recipe.I put all of the ingredients in my smoothie machine and gave it a whirl. Great. I added one extra garlic clove and a couple more dashes of hot sauce.”

  • “This is great for a summer lunch or dinner. I used Spicy V-8 for the tomato juice and skipped the dill. We had a busy day in town and it was great the whiz this up when I got home and have it waiting in the fridge for supper. I had it with a cold chicken sandwich as soup. Thank you Derf, this delivers great flavor and the low fat content makes it a dream.”
