I saw Chef Tyler Florence make this back in '05 at the Big E is Massachusetts. I made this last weekend when it was hot, and it was so refreshing!!

Watermelon Gazpacho

Ingredients

1 large tomato, pureed
1/2 serrano chile
2 cups cubed fresh watermelon
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons minced red onion
1/2 cucumber, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

In a blender, puree the tomatoes, chile, and 1/2 of the watermelon. Pour in the red wine vinegar and olive oil and pulse. Add the onion, cucumber and dill and season with salt and pepper. Puree until smooth. Pour into chilled bowls and sprinkle with dill, feta, and remaining watermelon. Serve.

I used seedless cucumbers. Also I used unsweetened apple sauce instead of olive oil, so it cut down a lot on calories- down to 73 calories per serving.
