A fresh and zesty gazpacho which can be served as appetizer or dessert. A nice surprise for family or guests and it is just great preceeding or following a heavy meal.. Ingredients:
3 6-oz. cartons vanilla low-fat yogurt |
2 medium granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and cut up |
1 medium cucumber, peeled, halved, seeded, and cut up |
3/4 cup apple juice or cider |
1 tbsp. packed fresh mint leaves |
1 fresh jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and cut up* (optional) |
1/4 tsp. salt |
fresh mint (optional) |
purchased pizzelles or other cookies (optional) |
Directions:
1. In food processor or blender combine yogurt, apples, cucumber, apple juice, mint, jalapeno, and salt.
2. Cover and process or blend until mixture is nearly smooth. (If container is too full, process or blend half of the mixture at a time.) If desired, garnish each serving with mint and serve with pizzelles. Makes 8 (1/2-cup) servings.
3. *Because hot chile peppers contain volatile oils that can burn your skin and eyes, avoid direct contact with chiles as much as possible. When working with chile peppers, wear plastic or rubber gloves. If your bare hands do touch the chile peppers, wash your hands well with soap and water.
