Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large ripe tomatoes
- 1 cup fresh cilantro

Instructions
Wash all fresh produce thoroughly under cold water.
Roughly chop the tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, and jalapeño pepper, removing seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less spice.
Peel and finely chop the garlic clove.
Add the chopped tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and 1 cup of water to a blender.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the soup is too thick, add a little more water to reach your desired consistency.

Transfer the blended soup to a bowl or pitcher, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to chill (optional but recommended).
Serve the soup cold, garnished with diced avocado or extra cilantro leaves if desired.
