Delicious Summer Recipes

The world's best gazpacho.  Seriously.  This will feed about 4.

Start by blending the following ingredients until smooth:
3 cups diced tomato
1 red onion
8 large cloves of garlic
2 slices of bread
1 cup of malt vinegar
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 T paprika
1 T cumin

Then mix in:
2 cups diced tomato
1 1/2 cup diced cucumber
1 can butter beans
2/3 cup canned corn
2 finely chopped chillies
1 diced red pepper
salt and pepper to taste

Garnish with:
1/4 of an avocado, diced, per person
chopped cilantro, to taste
chopped green onion, to taste
fresh-squeezed lime juice and cracked pepper


World's best Summer Salmon.  Awesome served with the gazpacho posted above, and super-easy to make!

Grill or pan-fry a piece of fresh salmon with a Cajun seasoning (chilli, garlic, paprika, cumin, pepper).

Serve crispy-skin-up on a bed of cumin rice.  The cumin rice is just boiled white rice mixed with olive oil, cumin, and salt.

Serve with diced avocado, cilantro, cracked pepper, and fresh lime.  Dust with paprika for added flavour and prettyness :)
