Gazpacho, what was once a traditional Latin American appetizer, has now made its rounds in the US and has taken on new and innovative forms. Lifted from the Food Network online, this recipe comes courtesy of chef Tyler Florence and it features an always favorite summer time treat: watermelon. Cool and refreshing, healthy and still oh-so-delicious, this watermelon gazpacho has the wherewithal to hold its own in the barbecue cuisine circuit.
