NOTES : Gazpacho from the grill? Yes, and it's wonderful! When you're grilling,

plan ahead to use this recipe. Place the onion, bell pepper, and tomatoes

alongside whatever you're grilling and voila, you've got the base for a

sensational, zesty summer soup that can be made in minutes the following day.
