Preparation

  1. Step 1

    With a food processor running, drop the garlic in through the feed tube to mince it. Then drop in the basil leaves to mince them. Turn the machine off, add the tomatoes to the container, then process until the tomatoes are smoothly pureed.

  2. Step 2

    Add the cucumber, green pepper and onion pieces and process until the vegetables are very finely chopped. Transfer the soup to a large bowl.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in the oil and vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the ice cubes to cool the soup and float cherry tomato slices on top. Serve at once or refrigerate until ready to use.

Reserve some basil, cucumber and tomatoes as garnish

We loved it. Simple and classic.

Really good. Great way to use up end of August garden and CSA surplus. Fast. Easy. I added a little jalapeno as VP mentioned - also seeded. Used mix of red and yellow heirloom tomatoes. Lesser amount of onion - maybe next time will try red onion.
