A Cuban twist on a summer favorite. (Cooking time is refrigeration time). Frozen corn (thawed) may be used for fresh corn (skip step 4). Cooked baby shrimp (cocktail or bay shrimp) can also be used, but I like the flavor and texture of the chopped larger shrimp.

Tips for Making Florida Gazpacho with Shrimp:
- Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. If you can't find good tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes instead.
- Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp cooks very quickly, so just cook it until it is opaque and pink.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of spice in the recipe to your liking. If you like spicy food, add more cayenne pepper or chili powder. If you don't like spicy food, omit the cayenne pepper or chili powder altogether.
- Serve the gazpacho immediately or chill it for later. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Florida gazpacho with shrimp is a refreshing and delicious soup that is perfect for a hot summer day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your liking. So next time you are looking for a light and healthy meal, give this recipe a try!
