Inspired by last week\u2019s entry about \u201csix ways to eat watermelon\u201d (sound off in the poll on the right if you haven\u2019t already), I took to the Web in search of a unique watermelon recipe to feature here today.<\/p>\n

The recipe I found is for watermelon gazpacho. I had only heard of gazpacho and wasn\u2019t really sure what it was, so I did some research. Turns out, gazpacho is a \u201ccold Spanish\/Portuguese tomato-based raw vegetable soup.\u201d Because it\u2019s eaten cold, gazpacho is typically served during the warmer summer months.<\/p>\n

You can wait until the summer to try this recipe, or you can try it now. Unlike traditional gazpacho, which has a tomato base, this recipe uses watermelon. Enjoy!<\/p>\n
