Fire-Roasted Gazpacho

I have always wanted to make a gazpacho, but for some reason I never have gotten around to it. I saw this on Rachael Ray's talk show and I knew it would be fast, light, and delicious!! My husband used some of the leftovers as salsa.

I am submitting this to the wonderful Joelen's blog event Food Network Chefs. Check out her blog, or even participate in one of her many events!! http://joelens.blogspot.com/

Dice onion, cucumber, and jalapeno into large chunks and place in food processor.

Grate in garlic.

Cut the crust off of the bread and tear into large chunks and add to food processor.

Drain the liquid from the red peppers and add to processor.
