Ina has a good recipe. I use low sodium V-8 and the spicey V-8 for the base. Lots of sweet red onion, cucumber and green bell pepper. Don't forget the garlic and use fresh tomatoes. Also I chill the bowls before serving so it soup stays extra cold.

Usually SL's stuff is OK - for using canned this and that but this Gazpacho was pretty bad. Fist off, orange juice was bad and where was the cucumber? That is one of the main flavors of Gazpacho.

We didn't care for this at all.

This is not like any gazpacho I have ever heard of. My recipe has all fresh veggies and is a very refreshing treat in the hot summer months here in Florida.

It was really muddy tasting and the appearance didn't help. This combo of flavors doesn't work for me. It wasn't refreshing which is what I want out of Gazpacho.

First, I have to say it - if making real gazpacho, use fresh ingredients, not canned. Chicken stock, orange juice and frozen veggies have no business in a gazpacho. I know the theme of the show, but this recipe is a travesty to food. Use fresh tomatoes, veggies like cucumbers, red bell peppers, some jalapenos.. it really is simple just by itself.

Terrible gazpacho. Chicken soup has no place in gazpacho and neither has orange juice. Look up a different recipe.

The soup was unappealingly dark in color and tasted very much of the can from the tomatoes.

This soups flavor was beyond awful. I should have stopped at the chicken broth and orange juice.

Gazpacho is traditionally served cold. I make it all the time. Since the weather was so warm over the weekend, I grilled outside and made this recipe as an accompaniment. It was NOT good at all. It was very, very acidic -- so much so that it gave my husband terrible heartburn. It also had a dullness to it from the canned and frozen produce (I usually use fresh. I won't use this recipe again.

I normally like my gazpachoe served warm, but to do it chilled was really interesting. I liked her idea of using the frozen stir-fry mix instead of chopping real vbegetables. What a time saver that was for me. I don't have a blender, so I just put everything in a bowl and whisked it and tried to get it to look as smooth as Chef Lee's did. I did okay, but I really think you need a blender. I lost the lid to mine, so I can't use it anymore. Great recipe!
