HOT DAMN, summer is finally coming to a close!!!! Can you tell I am super excited?! Well, I am. I have been cleaning out closets and whispering sweet nothings to my fall/winter wardrobe. “In due time, my sweets!” In just a few more weeks, I will be making cobblers, silky butternut and acorn soups, and hearty chilis. But for now, I shall celebrate by eating a yummy cool end of summer peach ginger gazpacho made with the peachiest of peaches the season has gifted me. Thanks, summer, but, I still loathe you.
Peach Ginger Gazpacho Heaven
So, please grab up all the ripe peaches and honor summer (that bitch) right along with me, ya’ll! They are so beautiful and delicious during the month of August. Be sure to find the ripest peaches you can! Check for bruises and broken skin. You don’t want to buy any that are too mushy or dried out. No need to peel them! Just leave the skin on the peaches to add a little glitter of color to the gazpacho. Enjoy the recipe!
