These recipes are a refreshing way to highlight summer's most flavorful produce like tomatoes, watermelon and cucumbers. Recipes like José Andrés's Gazpacho and Chilled Melon Soup are bright, tasty and will keep you cool in the summer heat. 01 of 11 José Andrés's Gazpacho View Recipe Gazpacho is a delicious way to eat more veggies. Think of it as a vegetable smoothie. Not only does Chef José Andrés keep a pitcher of this healthy gazpacho recipe in his refrigerator all summer, it's also served at Beefsteak, his chain of vegetable-driven restaurants. 02 of 11 Gazpacho with Scallop Skewers View Recipe Jason Donnelly We give this classic summer soup a protein-packed upgrade by pairing it with skewers of grilled scallops seasoned with citrusy compound butter. Make a little extra to spread on grilled bread to serve alongside. 03 of 11 Chilled Melon Soup View Recipe This refreshing summer soup is a great starter for dinner on the patio on a summer evening. Try any variety of melon in this recipe. Serve leftover soup with salad for lunch the next day. 04 of 11 Creamy Radish Soup View Recipe In this creamy radish soup recipe, radishes are sautéed and pureed with potato, creating a velvety, healthy soup. Cooking radishes also tones down any bitterness, while leaving plenty of sweet, earthy flavors to enjoy. Using smaller radishes will give the soup a pretty pink hue, like the one pictured here, while larger radishes result in an almost white soup. 05 of 11 Chilled Strawberry-Rhubarb Soup View Recipe Sweet strawberries and tart rhubarb are whirled together in this chilled soup. Serve it as a starter for an early-summer supper. 06 of 11 Easy Tomato Gazpacho View Recipe Many gazpacho recipes are thickened with bread, but this one uses just vegetables, making it a gluten-free refresher for a hot summer day. The key to any flavorful gazpacho is giving it time to rest. The flavors meld and become cohesive when the soup is allowed to sit a bit before serving. 07 of 11 Cold Cucumber Soup View Recipe Tangy buttermilk and fresh mint make this chilled soup a refreshing starter in the summer. 08 of 11 Creamy Cucumber Soup View Recipe There's no reason to only use cucumbers raw--they are wonderful sautéed then pureed with avocado for a silken-textured soup that's good warm or cold. 09 of 11 Herby White Gazpacho View Recipe This take on gazpacho replaces the tomato with melon or grapes for a sweeter taste and gets its silky texture from Marcona almonds. If you can't find them, use skinless almonds and add 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch more salt. 10 of 11 Creamy Cucumber Dill Soup View Recipe A combination of avocado and yogurt gives juicy cucumber just the right amount of creaminess in this rich chilled cucumber soup. 11 of 11 Watermelon Gazpacho View Recipe The delicate flavors of cucumber and watermelon go hand in hand to create a sweet-and-savory chilled soup, perfect as a first course on a hot night.
