Vegan Puerto Rican Gazpacho

Puerto Rican Gazpacho, not to be confused with Spanish Gazpacho, is traditionally meant to be a light refreshing salad, but that can quickly change when codfish, very high in sodium, is added. This avocado and cod salad is very popular on the island and is known as “gazpacho” in the southern region of Puerto Rico.

You may be wondering how this salad is related to the well-known Spanish gazpacho? I honestly don’t think it’s related at all. Perhaps this salad has a similar name because it incorporates almost all the ingredients of Spanish gazpacho: onion, tomato, and olive oil. However, this dish is not a cold soup, ours is a salad.

The non-codfish version is a childhood favorite of mine; my grandmother used (and still does) to make a fish-less version just for me since I never liked fish. As it turns out the fish-less version is vegan! With just 5 ingredients you can make your very Vegan Puerto Rican Gazpacho; avocado, onion & tomatoes it’s all it takes.

You can eat it as it is, with chips, bread, pita or in a sandwich.
