Tomato and Watermelon Gazpacho
August in Georgia is no joke. It’s the hottest, most humid month of the year, but it also brings the sweetest watermelons and an abundance of ripe tomatoes. Lately, my go-to lunch has been this refreshing watermelon gazpacho. I’ve been making it almost daily for the past week, and I’m not even close to getting tired of it. It takes just 5 minutes to blitz everything together in a blender and about 10 minutes to devour. The secret? There isn’t one—just use the best seasonal produce you can find.
