Heirloom Tomato & Pueblo Chile Gazpacho
This Heirloom Tomato & Pueblo Chile Gazpacho is the ultimate refreshing summer dish with a bold Colorado twist. By blending sun-ripened heirloom tomatoes with our signature fire-roasted Pueblo Anaheim chiles, this chilled soup delivers a sophisticated balance of garden-fresh sweetness and smoky, medium heat. It’s a vibrant, healthy, and "fruit stand fresh" recipe that perfectly captures the taste of a Scofield Fruits harvest!

Notes
For the best flavor, we recommend our fire-roasted Pueblo Chiles. Check our our chile page here to learn more.
Note 1: We prefer an English Cucumber for a little added flavor.
Note 2: EVOO can be adjusted to your liking. Keep in mind that a little additional drizzle in the bowl just before eating adds flavor and creaminess.
Note 3: For a traditional Spanish texture, add the bread; for a lighter, juice-style appetizer, leave it out!
Kick it up a notch by adding a few of your favorite croutons.
