Complementary gazpacho

I chose the ingredients for this gazpacho based on the concept of complementary colors (red/green) and effects (hot/cold).

So I threw in my blender a couple things from each of the four categories.

Red/hot: red chili, red onion.

Red/cool: watermelon, tomatoes.

Green/hot: lime juice, parsley (these are not that hot, but they make a great combination with the other stuff).

Green/cool: cucumber, a handful of green leafy vegs.

Serve with sea salt flakes and extra virgin olive oil.
