As we bid summer adieu, we wrap our series off with this refreshingly delicious, hearty, cool soup. Loaded with fresh vegetables alongside Parmesan crisps, it’s a perfect end note to everything the season embodies.

Despite the heat of the summer, I had a strong hankering for soup. Crazy right?

Believe it or not, my craving for gazpacho is what initially inspired our Summer Comfort Food series this month on LTG.

It took me a while to create a dish I was eager to share, which explains why I saved the best recipe for last.

Seasonal veggies fill the brim of the bowl. Much of the produce harvested locally, are still in abundance, so there is plenty of time to make this gazpacho.

I wanted to add a gourmet touch to the palate with grilled Parmesan crisps. The salty cheese crackers perfectly balanced out the cool, roasted vegetables.

This gazpacho is thick and chunky, but can be blended to a finer consistency.

It is truly Summer comfort in one spoonful.

What a beautiful gazpacho and I love the cheese crackers. What could be a more refreshing light meal than gazpacho? Also a great way to use of the garden produce. Grabbing my spoon!
