The watermelon gazpacho picture on the cover of the Texas Hill Country Cuisine Cookbook was the reason I noticed and bought it. When I made this soup for the first time, it proved my every expectation! I slightly modified the recipe by replacing yellow bell peppers with charred hatch. I also added 1/3 cup balled watermelon.
