Gazpacho Andalou

Optionally, you can grill the peppers first to give the soup extra depth. You can also add a small diced grilled carrot at the end if you are going to grill peppers. Also, you can just coarsely chop part of the veggies and only dice the amount that you will add after the vegetables are pureed. Use bloody mary mix to thin to preferred consistency (zing zang preferred)
