Re: Good, healthy and super EASY recipes

I also tried gazpacho (a cold soup) last year and was quite happy about how many easily accessible and colorful veggies are in it, with olive oil (another plus). There are many recipes online for it.

Some serve avocado or sour cream alongside for contrast as well, although I like it without. Instead I prefer using a lot of lime or lemon in mine.

It was so easy to keep a batch of it constantly around as a nice way to stay hydrated and at the same time deal with appetite surges. It is great for anyone who wonders what to do with excess tomatos from the summer garden.

I was reading one of the other posts about olive oil increasing the effect of Herceptin, and wondered if maybe it is the other way around!
