From the video’s description on YouTube
Keep cool with this easy, high protein gazpacho for the liquids stage after bariatric surgery.
Ingredients:
1 seedless cucumber
1 bell pepper
1 shallot
1 can whole, peeled tomatoes
1 can of chickpeas
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp garlic
1 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to tasteAdd all your ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. Let chill in the fridge for at least an hour, so that the flavors can develop. That’s it!
Protein Tip Traditional gazpacho is thickened with stale bread. In order to make this lower carb, my recipe is thickened with chickpeas. This adds about 24g of protein per can.
