Rhonda's Gazpacho Soup

Submitted By: Rhonda Malkmus

Here's a five-star recipe that's just as healthy as it is refreshing. Remember to keep the skins! They contain the greatest concentration of lycopene, which is a powerful anti-cancer nutrient, and acts as a low grade sunscreen from the inside out!
