Simple Cucumber Tomato Gazpacho | Plant-Based Keto

[nutrition calories=”125″ carbs=”5.8″ protein=”2.0″ fat=”9.8″]

Gazpacho can be such an incredibly healing food. Just a bowl of vegetables served

1. raw, so they have all their healing enzymes
2. emulsified, so they’re easier to digest and the nutrients easier to absorb

Add the fact that it takes only 5 minutes to make and it’s been a refreshing staple all summer long.

Gazpacho traditionally uses bread for a hearty, creamy texture. I use avocado instead and it’s at least as good. If you want it heartier still, add some hemp seeds to the blender for extra protein and healthy fat.

In fact, this soup is perfect for customizing to make sure you hit your keto macros exactly. A few extra drinks of olive or flax seed oil will increase the fat without harming the flavor or texture. Or swap some tomato and pepper for extra cucumber and avocado or kale.

This soup is the perfect way to use up extra vegetables or take any powdered supplements. I regularly blend in leftover spinach or salad greens. Not only to I avoid food waste but it adds to the smoothness of the soup. It’s also a great vessel for a scoop of my daily mushroom powder.
