Our squad has come and gone. The day they left we could barely function. Our house was way too quiet so we just drove around aimlessly listening to Adele “Hello, it’s me…”

Good news… “we’re back to life, back to reality, back to here and now” (#changedourtune). Working, blogging and doing our thang.

Literally we had 3 fun-filled days packed with scads of random silliness, side-splitting laughter, toasty fireside chats, loads of site-seeing, and abundant deliciousness!

… Like this Classic Gazpacho with Spicy Grilled Shrimp!!! It was devoured quicker than you can say Hurricane Hermine. No joke my friend. Two thumbs up from the 7, 15 and 45 year old. Ole’ Sanderino declared it “the best Gazpacho he’s ever had.” True story.

It’s hard to convey how delicious this soup truly is but I’m up for the challenge… it’s tangy and fresh with a smooth tomatoey base, filled with chunks of crisp veggies and topped with creamy avocado and delectable spicy shrimp.

The soup base consists of juice from the tomatoes, some tomato flesh, half a shallot and a red pepper, olive oil and minced garlic, all pureed in the food processor. Finished off with some sherry vinegar, salt and pepper.

Finally loaded up with diced jalapenos, chopped cucumbers and red peppers, more diced shallots, and chopped tomato flesh with the skin left on and then refrigerated for at least 2 hours.

But that’s not all: we’ve got some spicy shrimp to grill up. The marinade is hands-down my all time favorite flavor combo for these crustaceans. Plus, it couldn’t be easier to whip up. It consists of fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, cayenne, paprika, smoked paprika, salt and olive oil. You let them sit for 20 minutes then throw them on a hot grill for 2-3 minutes a side.
