I still have lots of tomatoes from the greenhouse as well as cucumbers so tonight for dinner I blitzed them all up into gazpacho. The kids were not impressed when I told them we were having cold soup – I’m obviously a bad parent for not introducing them to it sooner – but they both enjoyed it.
I also added a bit of cider vinegar, garlic, chives from the garden, nigella seeds, pepper, and some veggie stock. Since practically all of it was grown in the garden it was very cheap.
Haha – the perils of feeding kids, eh? Good that they enjoyed it, though. I remember whining sometimes about what mum made for dinner, too – until she had enough one evening and sent me to bed there and then without any. I didn’t whine again 😄
Kids are so contrary and such whingers! Your mum’s strategy sounds effective 🙂
That looks very tasty and healthy. Sometimes I have cold soup if I was in a hurry and didn’t put it in the microwave long enough. It is better than it sounds (although I don’t like chilled food unless it’s a very hot day.)
