Like so many of us with food sensitivities or allergies, the necessity of creativity in the kitchen has now become a joy. That said, I do not relish hours of prep time in the kitchen.\u00a0 This new version of my old favorite gazpacho, has replaced the tomato I can no longer eat with cucumber! It is gluten, dairy, nightshade free, full of nutrients, yummy and so easy, done in 15 minutes in the blender.

Cucumber Gazpacho: serves 4<\/strong>
2 cucumbers (unwaxed\/organic if possible to be able to use the peels; if waxed, peel first)
2 T shallots (or onion if you don\u2019t have shallots)
2 small garlic cloves
1 cup cilantro leaves
4 T lime juice
2 cups coconut unsweetened yogurt
\u00bd teaspoon salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bd teaspoon black or white ground pepper
2 t coriander ground
2 T olive oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 handful arugula or baby kale or baby spinach
 
For garnish consider:
Lime zest (my favorite)
Diced avocado
Poached shrimp drizzled with lime, olive oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put all ingredients in blender.
Chill in fridge.
Make sure it is REALLY cold so best to make ahead of time.
Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
