Gazpacho and Shrimp Shooters
This is a fresh, healthy appetizer that has a beautiful presentation. We took these over to a dinner party last night and they were a big hit! I'd plan on two per person. If you don't already have them, Target sells attractive little shooter glasses to serve them in for pennies. This is also a great Gazpacho recipe for serving sans shrimp! Ingredients

This is a delicious and light appetizer. If you like Gazpacho, you will love it. I would leave some Tabasco on the side so your guests can spice them up as much as they want!1
