Sunshine Gazpacho

 This refreshing and unusual gazpacho is easy to make; roughly chop the ingredients, then whiz in the food processor and chill for an hour before serving.  The mint and apple make it a refreshing change from the usual hearty red tomato based gazpacho and the bright yellow color with the apple sliver garnish was elegant.

!!!!!!!!!  Important:  I bought an Anaheim chile pepper at the farmer's market, expecting something mild and sweet.  Maybe a spicier chili migrated into the Anaheim bin, but the one I bought was ferociously spicy.  I minced about 1/32 of a teaspoon and that was plenty to provide some zing.  Definitely taste your Anaheim before tossing it into your gazpacho.

Quantity:  I made the recipe in the quantities recommended (2 yellow tomatoes, 2 small/medium Honey Crisp apples) and it would have provided 6 small bowls packed with flavor as an appetizer to a heartier meal.  If you want to use it as part of your main course as I did for the 3 of us, be sure to make a second dish full of carbs and a heavier (maybe slightly salty) profile.  

Thank you to Forks Over Knives for this delightful recipe that all 3 of us enjoyed.
