    Not sure what to serve with gazpacho? I have 20 delicious options for you. The chilled Spanish soup is an excellent and delicious choice for part of a refreshing summer meal.

    Gazpacho is a Spanish soup that originated in Andalusia in southern Spain.

    The original version of Gazpacho was made of stale bread, garlic, olive oil, and a liquid of some sort -- most likely water and vinegar. And any vegetables that were available were also included.

    First, below are two of my favorite gazpacho recipes.

    • Easy Tomato Gazpacho
    • Creamy Avocado Gazpacho

    What goes well with gazpacho?

    My favorite way to serve Gazpacho is with a delicious crusty bread and a salad

    Since cold soups like gazpacho are usually served on a warm or hot summer day, I think the whole meal should involve little to no heat.

    From all sorts of salads and crusty breads, to grilled vegetables and light sandwiches, here are 20 delicious ideas for what to serve with gazpacho, with something for everyone.

    Off we go . . . .

    Breads to Serve with Gazpacho

    Garlic Herb Bread
    An incredibly delicious, easy-to-make, no-yeast, no-knead bread. With just 15 minutes of active work time, you’ll be slicing this savory bread in 90 minutes!
