Roasted Tomato and Shrimp Gazpacho

This seven ingredient Roasted Tomato and Shrimp Gazpacho is an easy make ahead meal.  Roasted tomatoes, cucumber, red pepper, jalapeno, cilantro and garlic are stirred together with shrimp to create this flavorful warm weather soup.

Right now, the last thing I want to think about is what we’re eating for lunch or dinner.  We’re moving across the country in a week and a half and I’m more focused on how on earth I’m going to get everything packed up and ready for the movers.  You know, with four children, a dog, a cat, a turtle and a goldfish needing my attention at the same time.  Not so much the last two on that list.  They’re quite low maintenance but of course I had to add them for dramatic effect.  Instead, I just want to open my fridge and have a meal ready to simply pull out and enjoy.  Enter my Roasted Tomato and Shrimp Gazpacho.

I’ve been making this soup since Memorial Day weekend and have don’t have plans on stopping any time soon.  I love that I can prep it all the night before after the menagerie is in bed and then simply put the finished dish in the fridge to hang out until I’m ready to dig in.  It’s perfect as a main dish or even as a summer appetizer.  It’s also an amazing way to clean out your refrigerator crisper drawer before heading out on your next trip to the farmer’s market or grocery store.

Roasted tomatoes, cucumber, red pepper, jalapeno, cilantro and garlic are stirred together with shrimp to create this flavorful warm weather soup.  And the shrimp?  Look no further than your grocer’s freezer section for Shrimp Scampi from SeaPak.  It’s the perfect shortcut for this seven ingredient soup as the shrimp are already in a flavorful blend of butter, garlic and typical scampi seasonings.  The shrimp cook at the same temperature as the same temperature as the tomatoes so your oven can do double duty, meaning you’re out of the kitchen and back to packing boxes – or whatever fun thing you happen to be doing while I’m packing boxes!
