Ahhhh….the simplicity of a good meal in the summer. I am blessed to live where we can grow vegetables all year round but I am very fond of summer veggies.
Corn. I love corn. It is also one of my husbands favorite dishes. Since moving to TX we seem to use it a lot more. Maybe it’s because it is readily available or maybe it is because I see it a lot more and it prompts me to try new things.
This is a recipe that i created for a class that i taught. I poured it in shot glasses and served it along with a lovely TX rose! No matter how you decide to serve it, I am sure you will enjoy the fresh flavors of this soup.
Bon Appetit.

I can attest that this gazpacho was delicious! Just like tomato based gazpacho, it is like summer in South Dakota in a bowl (or shot glass if you prefer)!
