About Mango Gazpacho

Mangoes add a subtle sweetness to the chilled soup, which is perfect to serve on hot summer days.
This no-cook, vegan, and gluten-free soup comes together in under 15 minutes using simple ingredients.
Serve it on the side with meals or as a light lunch or dinner on a hot summer day.

Ingredients
Mangoes – You can use fresh or frozen mangoes to make this soup, or canned mango puree also works great.
Oranges – Oranges add a hint of tanginess to the sweet mango soup.
Basil Leaves give a refreshing taste. You can replace them with mint leaves, too.
Others – You will also need water, onions, cucumbers, extra virgin olive oil, salt, sugar, ground black pepper, and pecans.
Use a good quality extra virgin olive oil for the best taste.
Pecans add a nice crunch to the creamy, thick gazpacho, but you can also use walnuts or almonds instead.
