Ingredients

  • 4 tomatoes ripe, chopped
  • ½ red bell pepper chopped
  • ½ cucumber peeled and chopped
  • ¼ small red onion chopped
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • ¼ tsp smoked paprika optional
  • ¼ cup cold water

For Garnish:

  • Microgreens
  • Mini cucumber slices
  • Cherry tomato halves
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • In a blender, combine tomatoes, red bell pepper, cucumber, red onion, garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Blend until smooth.
  • Add a bit of cold water if needed to achieve a smooth, pourable texture. Transfer to a pitcher and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to enhance the flavors.
  • Pour into shot glasses or mini cups. Top each shot with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of flaky sea salt.
  • Garnish with a mini cucumber slice, a cherry tomato half, and micro greens. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • Use ripe tomatoes — they’re the base of the flavor, so the better the tomato, the better the gazpacho.
  • Want a little heat? Add a pinch of chili flakes or a splash of hot sauce before blending.
  • These gazpacho shots make a great addition to summer dishes like grilled vegetables, sandwiches, or a charcuterie spread.
  • If you’re hosting a brunch or picnic, serve these in chilled glasses with a side of crusty bread.
