Champneys Gazpacho Soup

This recipe came from a 1988 edition of ELLE magazine and was part of a 10 Day Cleansing Plan. It is packed with good sources of carotenoids, in particular lycopene from tomatoes, so is great for sun protection. It's low GL, it's really easy to make and fabulous for Summer.
