This pineapple gazpacho is perfect to serve ice cold on a hot summer’s day. If you like, you can garnish each serving with fresh pineapple wedges for a prettier presentation. The crushed pineapple provides a sweet note to this unusual and delightful interpretation of the classic tomato soup from Spain. There's also no cooking required; you simply toss all the ingredients together in a big bowl. The soup features a variety of flavors and textures, from crushed tomatoes to cucumbers, red onions, celery, red and yellow peppers, and jalapeños, plus lots of spices, including cumin, coriander, and a touch of hot pepper sauce and chili powder for some heat.
