Watermelon Gazpacho recipe

1 ripe watermelon (6 cups flesh)
1 cucumber, unpeeled
1 cup diced pineapple (fresh or canned)
2 tablespoons ground almonds
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

Instructions

Step 1Slice watermelon, scrape off seeds and scoop out watermelon flesh into a large bowl.

Step 2Cut cucumber and add it to bowl with pineapple and almonds. Pour in lemon juice.

Step 3Blend all with electric blender until smooth, decorate with mint and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Variations

• Use lime juice instead of lemon juice.
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest or lime zest will add a zingy citrus flavour to the soup.
• Most watermelon is pink inside. You can, however, also get the yellow-flesh variety (Don't be confused with rock melon or cantaloupe). This recipe works with either pink or yellow watermelon.
