Summer Gazpacho
Cooking for Two, pg 22 by Joanna Lund
When the afternoon is hot enough to fry eggs on the sidewalk, here’s the perfect post-work cooler! It’s rich in antioxidants, but it’s even richer in fresh flavors.
Serves 2 (1 cup)
1 cup reduced-sodium tomato juice
2 tablespoons Kraft Fat Free Catalina Dressing
1/4 teaspoon chili seasoning
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup chopped unpeeled cucumber
1/2 cup peeled and chopped fresh tomato
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped green bell pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley or 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
In a medium bowl, combine tomato juice, Catalina dressing, chili seasoning, and black pepper. Add cucumber, tomato, onion and green pepper. Mix well to combine. Stir in parsley. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Gently stir again just before serving.
Each serving equals:
HE: 2 1/4 Vegetable, 17 Optional Calories
64 calories, 0 gm fat, 2 gm protein, 14 gm carbohydrate, 237 mg sodium, 37 mg calcium, 2 gm fiber
